I don;t think the "bad guys" alot of people take them to be. I mostly saying this because of my very recent surpizingly good customer service as apposed to horrible customer service i have experienced from them in the past.
1) Orgins is actually fairly decent program, i doubt they will be dethroning Steam anytime soon but as a online store and game managers its actually pretty good downloads are fast, it works(and everyone freaking over there EULA even though its pretty standard issue of any online program anymore...)
2) i contacted them last night about a Sim 3 expansion i had bought and lost the disk too, i had also in the past bought an expansion via EA old store which all former purchased are now transferred to your origins account. I contacted them about my lost disk expected a "w/e not our problem you lost you disk we'll send you another for___$ blah" but no i got a response first line "i transferred a digital copy of the game to your origins account and you can download it immediately" didn't even ask for activation code 9which i still had i only lost the disk not the code)
