It's like people are afraid of change.
Don't get me wrong, I am totally with you in that I would love to get all of this stuff for free day one, but not everyone can work for free. Blizzard can make continued updates because they're funneled money from WoW and Valve can make continued free updates because of Steam. Everyone else has to get money from some place.
Just be glad they're releasing episodes instead of making you wait two years for a new game.. Or not. Be happy with what they release and show them what you think of their DLC by never touching it. If you really don't want to pay $100, then wait for the inevitable special edition.
The bar has been tremendously raised this generation and it takes money to reach it. DLC and episodes is all about extending the life of a game so you get more enjoyment and the publisher gets more money.
If you don't like it, good for you. Personally, I'm loving DLC from things like Mass Effect and Borderlands.
