No, Starforce is not removed at all in a Clone, its just being emulated. Reversing the Protection and crack it is very different from using ways to emulate the protection you know.
Anyway: The attempt MiRROR did was probed for a while on cdfreaks Forum and i´m pretty glad someone decided to test and release those ISOs. Nice effort nontheless as you can play the game.
Until now DVDs are safe from being emulated as you can´t write em in RAW Mode. I think Daemon Tools v4 will change something to that.
U know: Time beats wisdom.
