The 2 class actions suits against EA about spore won and the DRM was removed. However, the point of contention was that EA didn't properly specify what was required by the DRM.

So, evidentally, a class action lawsuit can make a company remove it's DRM. The rest of the stuff about unfinished product has never happened and is pretty frivolous.

The best thing to do is not purchase these games in the hopes that the suits will take the hint. Though they seem pretty thick-headed at times and prone to placing blame elsewhere in a fit of denial. Possibly even going so far as to like about repeated hacker DOS attacks.
