DRM like this stops me buying the related game. I have 4 PCs at home (two laptops and two desktops), three of which are online. All are capable of gaming. I reformat my HDDs about once a year or so, and install games on all of them. My copy of Civ IV has been installed at least 20 times alone, and that's not an isolated example.
Yes, I am still limited, as I typically need the CD or DVD in the drive to play an individual game, but I'm fine with that, as it's a rare day the same game is being played on more than one machine.
I'm not fine with a 3 install licence. It sucks. I will not buy a game with it. I have no desire to be at the whim of EA for later installs that I know I will make. No way. Not happening. Uh uh.
Perhaps I'm a minority with my individual situation, but I'm clearly not in the minority with my opinion of the DRM.
