As you can see under my user name I live in Morris, Illinois which is about 70/75 miles as the crow flies to Chicago where my AT&T High Speed Internet connection starts. I've had this Telephone/Internet combo for the past four years. I'm very sure they ( AT&T ) have maintenance periods when they are down but so help me I have never experienced a down time on the Internet in all this time. Lucky? Yes very lucky but my point is there is no way on this GODS green earth will I agree to a Internet company ( UBI nor any other ) making me ask them if I can play
my game
when I choose!
If all Hell breaks loose in the near future and Internet games are played this way, then I'll no longer be buying any new games as I've plenty to be played OFFLINE.
Besides I'm a model railroader in DCC HO scale and have a rather large layout that is 8 years old and does not require online connection
period.
That can very much override this silly greedy DRM/OSP dreamed up funky idea.
Some computer geniuses just can not leave a good thing alone.
