The header is not misleading. "NEVER REQUIRE" a dedicated internet
connection is the key.
Naturally if you want access some special features that may be
included... internet could be an option. Very different than
"requiring" a permanent connection to play a disc.
"Arguing with anonymous strangers on the Internet is a sucker's game
because they almost always turn out to be -- or to be indistinguishable from
-- self-righteous sixteen-year-olds possessing infinite amounts of free time."
