Infocom's approach of adding props to their games will probably not
stop all pirates.  After all you can always photocopy those little 
bits and pieces (like the fluff in HHGTTG).  However it must be
VERY anoying to be playing a pirated version of Suspect (for example),
pick up a rumpled business card, examine it, and get the message

A copy of the card is included with the game.
