Maybe it's just me, but most of the people bitching have already given EA their money (good luck getting it back), and are all part of the problem. We knew about the DRM for months, you still gave EA your money, giving them justification, and now there are server problems?! Who could have seen that coming...
If you are against DRM like this, don't give them your money in the first place, and when you can't access your game because of these predictable DRM consequences, don't act surprised. The servers will eventually be smoothed out and all of this huffing and puffing will go away (until EA shuts the server down and you still preorder the next Sim City).
