I had my Diablo II disc in my bag yesterday and this morning I took it out and found that some how it got cracked (from the centre hole out). Is there anyway I could get another set of discs from Blizzard (I doubt that) or is there another place where I could get a new set? Also would it be possible for some one with Diablo II to make a .dmg of the play disc and send it to me? Of course anything done must be legal.

--Thanks so much.

couldn't you copy it from another person or get it from bittorrent? you legaly purchased the game and you own it now. laws just prevent you with sharing it with other people who don't own it.

I don't really like BitTorrent and other P2P apps because they're corrupted files and things take so long to download with BT.

Some one told me that the price for Diablo II was 20$ now (I bought it was 50$ and thought it was still that much) so I just went out and bought another copy. I think that's a fair price to pay for my carelessness.

Actually, no. When you buy a game, you buy the license to use THAT game for your own personal use. Even if you own it, you aren't using your license, you're using the other persons'.

also if you were to crack the cd again you would have a backup .dmg file that you could always go back to.
