Not sure I saw this written down anywhere, but I noticed a lot more enemies when playing through and for once there were situations where I at least got hit by a monster.
Arcane Orb at level 3 is so very nice, considering how lackluster I find all of the signature spells until Electrocute (which is now level 13...horrible in beta but wont be too big an issue on release). Disintegrate is a little easier to get since you will have it by the end of your first play through at level 8 (?)
Another thing I noticed was there was no lack of Orbs dropping, probably the highest count of any magical item drop my Wizard has seen.
In terms of fun I have once again played through all the characters this wipe and still sits roughly the same.
It's a fairly interesting discussion point, if you really think about it technology has gone far enough that it's pretty much impossible. Look today even at pornography filters put in place to 'protect children' or 'protect workplaces' from end users who we have decided should not be able to access the content.
In the end a black list is a system which will never keep up with the content.
Not only that, but with data encryption on the fly if this went ahead and all the content switched to HTTPS and went dark (i.e. user based notification of a web site change with no public notification) it would start to become very hard for the authorities to track it down.
I suppose if the end result is to move piracy back to its roots - i.e. scene based with little or no access to the public - then it could be mildly successful. Then it would move to physical piracy again (much like 10-15 years ago) for the people "down the line".
Look forward to seeing what happens, it's easy to make a decision based on a concept - especially when you have no idea what will actually go into it's execution. And if Government has taught us anything, you don't need to understand something to make a decision about it.

Wizard > Barbarian > Witch Doctor > Monk > Demon Hunter
(Of course this is personal preference)
