Kinda shows the "Gullible, Tasteless Consumer" as the villain they are. If they would stop buying crap it all wouldn't work out for EA.

And Origin is hardly the 'huge ocean liner' they make it out to be. More like the Titanic. But It was a great video.

I'm not sure it's fair to expect people to go back to living in cabins in the woods and farming for their food, which is the logical end to the 'if we didn't buy it the companies would stop gouging us' line of thinking.

I dunno, I think it could stand to be a little more heavy-handed in its message. I didn't really understand what was going on at all.
