I typically use it for all my online purchases.

true, never thought about doing that.

That would make more sense if BF3 was the chick and steam was the one waving then EA steps and says no.

So I should have to go through all that trouble if I have the choice between somewhere I trust and somewhere I don't? I don't think so.

Another benefit is seeing how this "entitlements after 2 years" thing plays out. With Steam, I wouldn't lose that game if I went AWOL for 2 years.

I purchased BF2 from EADM well over 2 years ago, and I was able to DL it again last week.

Regardless of where you purchase it from, EVERYTHING including the DRM flows through Origin. EA could STILL decide to fuck you after 2 years if they wanted.
