I think sometimes patches are necessary, being a PC gamer I am used to them.
DLCs are a mixed bag. I agree that some of the content that makes the game different since it basically allows for a completely different experience should be paid download (e.g.Valkyria Chronicles, GTA, Burnout Paradise etc.).
I call BS on some of the others e.g. costumes, 180Kb downloads thqt unlock stuff already on the disc.
In general if it seems that the developers have worked to create stuff after the game was shipped and sold seems ok to me. New maps I think generally fall into the category of "I would pay for them xtra."
