Whoop-dee-doo?

whoop dee do?

You don't find problems with the fact you are paying for content you have already bought?

I don't really care. 

We either get it on the disc and just save someone the server bandwitdth or download it later needlessly wasting bandwitdth and time, either way, it's pretty much the same result for us.  Does it really matter?

There's really no point in getting worked up over it.

Hell, if I buy a disc, I want everything on that disc. Maybe it's my '90s talking, but whatever is on that disc belongs to me the moement I receive it, every piece of it. Charging for unlocking data already on the disc is fundametally wrong. I honestly can't even give a damn about someone's bandwdith, if they want to be paid then they should have some expenses as well.

Actually, you couldn't be more wrong and are falling for a common misconception. 

You aren't paying for the content on the disc, you're paying for the license to use it.  That license does not cover the DLC, it only covers the game itself.  If you want to use that DLC, you have to buy the proper license.

I am gonna go off on a leg and assume you have something to do with the industry here. To extend that, you probably feel entitled to nickle and dime your consumers for anything they are gonna give. You are the exact opposite of a pirate, but about as bad as one, with all the horrible excuses.

At least I know you aren't working for companies like Valve and Blizzard. Hate to break it to you, but the companies that bend over for their consumers make the most money in this industry, and they even get pirated less too.
