Only for games which require that you may only install the game exactly once with the copy that you bought and which adopt a DRM scheme for that. This game allows you to install and play the game on more than one machine, but not at the same time - you will get penalized for that in MP gaming. So, for this game it's not an issue at all.

While I can understand that Shrapnel doesn't want to provide direct download options because they don't have the technical means or because it's not profitable, there is no technical aspect that would be a problem to make the Dominions series available via direct download.
