expansion packs are bit different to what most would understand as DLC though.... Content vetted by, checked by, sanctioned and released by MG, is a good thing and seems to have been an approach which worked well over the years.

However...

The Mona Lisa image (shown earlier) example is a very good point on what DLC became for MSFS and taken to perfection, it seems, with MS Flight (buy a plane without a cockpit - what sorta crud is that?)
The main concern with DLC, as in forking out for new content and accoutrements (outside of an official expansion pack), released in a open market environment is that of ongoing support for the product sold... pay good money for something that catches your eye and it turns out to be a dud... what then?

Even duct tape can't fix stupid... but it can muffle the sound.
