Beware of BioWare!

Have you seen what happened with all the MMORPGs that disapperared in the last ten years? I never seen any company providing a mean to play the games later, after the servers were shutdown. Motor City Online, Planetscape, the list it's pretty long. I've never seen any law kicking in. And it should be. One of the last games that suffered the very same fate was Auto Assault. Shutdown, but no servers for the people who paid hard money, for a couple of years, to play their favorite game, after the servers were closed.
And I agree, the publisher should provide a meaning to circumvent the online activation, after, let's say, two years since the game launch. After two years most of the games are pretty dead(unless they are backed up by a strong modding community), so there would be no reason for them to keep the online activation around.
