I like the fact that if I get a new machine or have multiple machines, I can install/manage the same game everywhere.

Installing over the internet via digital download is not going to go away, and until someone comes up with a decentralized DRM scheme, centralized DRM is here to stay.

Why does it have to be a choice between "awful DRM" and "more awful DRM". Why not "no DRM"? GOG has proven over the years that it's a viable business model.

Be my guest and convince all of the record companies of that.

I'm voting with my wallet - don't really see much point of anything beyond that. Campaigns only work for advertising companies.
