I have payed those $5 on january 5th. My friend has sent me link to download it this morning, so I guess, I'll play it, since I have already payed for it. You know, first release date was like "during xmas holidays", second one was january 5th, I took one day off from work, payed for it, and nothing happens.
So I guess it's fair I'll use that DLC now, and Bioware keeps my money, we both are happy, aren't we?

Just becareful what you do depending on your country that may still be breaking the law and you have paid for it waiting a little longer in not that bad and if you are prepared to use something that has been stolen you are just adding to the problem you would have been better to report that link to Bioware and give them the opertunity to have it taken down one way or another.

IF something is stolen they are right to dely the release until they find out who leaked it they have to protect themselves and us them form losing money and us form having people taking the code apart and distroying a good company and their game.

It is perfectly legal in country I live - I can download and use whatever I want as long as I don't share it, and since I have downloaded it from hotfile, I am clean. Only thing they can do is ban my account, but why they would do it? I have payed for the game, I have payed for the DLC at time of their second announced release time. Anyway they don't want to lose any paying customer who has bought all games they ever released.  I work at software industry myself, but I have totally clear conscience about this.
Well you got your point at reporting that link, I will do it right now. I am big fun of Bioware, but I got really upset by this.
Edit: How to report those links anyway?

Damn. Boards on Gamefaqs say the DLC was shorter than expected. There is some cool loot to be found but not really worth the money said one poster.

What money? Anyone who already has it stole it.

Not true my available content is showing RtO is ready to buy. Dont want to buy it tho untill we get word from bioware.

PC version btw

Don't wanna argue or anything, but I really know it's legal, it is also legal with music and movies as long as it's used for personal use only. I live in Czech Republic btw.

In Europe it is mostly legal to download things of the internet but it is illegal to upload movies or games on sites. Downloaden it isn`t (yes its weird I know, i still think it is illegal)

Lots of self-righteous suck-ups here!
I supported all devs of all games I love, including BioWare since 1998! But I quote from the other thread:

"Bastards (as someone labeled them) playing the fraking DLC and the game! I have no problem playing something that "they" can until I can buy it normally. I did it with Origins when EA delayed my C.E. pre-paid, pre-orderred DVD for some 3 weeks past the global release date and I have no guilty feelings whatsoever about it!

If I can play it now, I will. If they want my money, then release the damn thing when "ready" and I'll gladly support them by purchasing it. I intend to purchase and play all Dragon Age content BioWare gives us, not necessarily in that order if they fail to release it before inside people leak it. Or how do you imagine it gets leaked to being with?"

i'm from Italy, and we're one of the country with the most piracy. But that doesn't mean that it's legal or not.. Even if it's illegal  (as in Italy) you will never be under arrest for downloading anything. But EA can ANY time sue you for money..that's certain.

Legal and "permitted" are two different words in my country.

Actually this is legal in most European countries and I would guess its the same in the USA. Those "famous" claims have been always against people making intellectual property available for others. One of our law professors at Vienna claims that by the Austria text regarding the IP-law you may make legal copies from illegally acquired versions - an oppinion I highly disagree and I wouldn't dare to agrue this way at court, but after a long discussion with a guy I worked with I have to admit his opinion has some merits.

I'm not responsible for your strained patience. Like I said, what you do with this is up to you. Besides, there was no way this was staying quiet.

And I chose to "scream from the rooftops" becuase, once again, Bioware has some explaining to do. Here's a perfectly working copy of a DLC people have been waiting to buy for forever that has been delayed for another month (or so) for reasons they will not share with us. I wanna know why. And apparently, we're not the only ones ticked off, because someone HAD to have leaked this.

Ensue hilarity.

Explaining about what ? Do you have a QA team throughfully testing it. It's not because that leaked version may works most the time normally, as Bioware itself said the official version was,  that the serious bug discovered at the last moment is not existing. It just requires to be triggered when the game is played in a certain way.

As for the leak itself, the DLC was ready for release which means the whole chain of distribution from Bioware to EA to the DLC hosting service had probably already access to the file, increasing the likeness of a leakage. It's even possible the DLC download link was already active, like all the other DLC DAZIP you can download.
There is not need to imagine some sort of internal conspiracy with some fed-up Bioware staff who would release the file.

As for promoting pirated content on the official forum, I find it to be of bad taste.

They can do it, but as long as you pay for it, you are legal user, and it doesn't matter if you download it from bioware, or rapidshare.  And if you dlowad the DLC now on jan. 9th, and pay for it on jan. 15th, you are perfectly fine, and they can't sue you anyway.
If EA'd want to sue someone, they should sue those kids who are uploading tons of games and then posting links on "warez forums".

It's so funny to read "I won't buy the DLC but I wouldn't download it illegaly either"... what are you doing in this thread to begin with? This thread is for people that WILL buy the DLC even if it is after they have it and are already playing it. I know I will buy it. Not sure if I will get it before since I can't find it anywhere that is not a scam website asking my credit card number!

If it is available on free websites before it is released, I'll definitely get it! Screw console users! When the release version is ready, I delete and download the real thing again. And those with warnings about "it can contain virus and break your system" ... that is psychological terrorism... I have been playing with PC since 88 here and even with no anti-virus, I've never been hacked or infected... so that famous "part" located between the chair and the keyboard makes a hell of a difference!
