sadly, EA is ruining what looks like an otherwise very promising game with DRM and DLC

I don't think they're ruining it. Some people don't care about DRM / DLC with gaming (like myself). I just want the best possible gaming experience.
Yeah, until they shutdown the server shortly after the next Sim City is released, making your old game unless. EA has a habit of doing things like that.
That's a good point, but by then I probably won't still be playing the game.
The last two sentences you wrote are incompatible.
I usually play Sim City by finding the unlimited money cheat and getting a large amount of money before I start. I can then build whatever I want. I enjoy the city design part of the game, not the economic part.

I doubt that this way of playing will be possible in the new Sim City.
