I won't buy the game with this protection scheme in place. I have no problems with DRM like Steam. That seems fair to me, and to be honest, I like having the games linked to an account and knowing that I can redownload and install them as many times as I please, thank you very much.

But, as others have said, I don't like the idea of not being able to access my games when the internet has gone down because my ISP sucks or because Ubisoft pulls the plug on the servers. With all due respect to Ubi, they're a good publishing warehouse, but from my perspective they don't have the best track record in supporting their games...Far Cry 2, for instance still has plenty of bugs in it that have not been (and do not appear to be in the process of being) fixed. I will not buy a product that I may not be able to play in a few years because Ubi has pulled the servers for it. This kind of thing and pay-by-the-month games like WoW drive me insane. I will not purchase them. I simply refuse. No way, no how, no thank you Ubisoft.
