In all honesty I do not have a huge problem with U-play (as a program).

Maybe because of my location my internet is more reliable, I can see how others would find it a pain in the backside.

My gripe with DRM in general is that if you look on certain shady sites, a day after release, you find the game cracked and DRM removed.

I know of a few people who got clever, as to disable features in cracked version , effectively making it a demo. I believe Anno 2070 did this, other examples I know of but escape me at this moment. :(

Now that I could go for, as the honest consumer is more plagued by this (DRM), than the so called thieves they want to stop. If you ask me, they just want to botnet our computers. *tinfoil hat on*:D
