I think what is infamous about Capcom isn't the ripping out of content.  It is the fact they have the content on the disk they ship, and they just have people pay to unlock it.  Unlike ripping content off, it is there, just put behind a tollgate.

Yeah, that definitely got the most buzz because the fact that it was on the disc was an additional slap in the face. But they already had a reputation at that point for selling things separately that used to just be included as a matter of course, like palette swaps and cheat codes.

Other companies do this.  I thought the big deal was that they had the content on the disk.  Having content on the disk is an entirely new level of horse armor.
