Ubi should be getting nervous. AC 2 (release 16 March) and Settlers have great opposition to DRM. Most press is against DRM. Christian Science Monitor is against. Petitions are flying everywhere. If this is a storm, we have only seen the beginning.

Sadly it probably won't have any impact. As someone on BluesNews pointed out, there was that huge uproar about dedicated servers for MW2 and that sold and sold and sold.

Assassin's Creed 2 will sell and sell and sell just for being AC2. Now, should UbiSoft get DDoS'd to hell and back when AC2 comes out, we might see something happen, but banking on AC2 not selling due to DRM simply won't happen I'm afraid.
