My own beef with Ubisoft is that they use DRM schemes that they don't bother keep updated or patched so that software from a few years ago won't run on 64-bit Windows 7, for example (maybe they just cheaped out on it). Installing Il-2 1946 off the disc onto a fresh Win7 x64 install requires you to find an undocumented updater for securom so that the stupid DRM will allow you to use the software you paid for legally. This is not a big deal in real terms, but I then look at the situation for a game like Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones (also released by Ubisoft) that you CANNOT run legally under win7 x64 because ubisoft is too lazy or cheap to bother release a small fix patch. You have to download an illegal crack to use the software you paid for...BS.
My 2 cents,
