I didn't really try to register my copy through Origin, as I already have a windows copy that I got for free. There was a special offer at some point, where you could get it for free for maybe 1 or 2 days, I don't remember.
The problem is, it is really difficult (if at all possible) to run the windows version of Origin on your Mac through Wineskin, Crossover, Cider or whatever. If that was possible, I could probably create my own mac compatible port of the game with my windows copy. I don't use Bootcamp, because I can't afford to lose space on my hard drive (it is only 250GB).
As for gametree, they didn't notify anybody. They just quietly shut down. And I would have definitely saw their email (I am a customer, I have their email address added to my contacts, so there is no way that it would be blocked).
That sucks. I also bought the Mac version of DAO UE through GameTreeMac back in 2011, though due to their activation limits (I believe you could only activate it 5 times without going to customer service and requesting more), I went ahead and jumped on Amazon's sale on a bundle of the Mac versions of DAO UE and DA2 a couple years ago. They've stopped selling it, too, but at least you can still download it if you own it through them.
That said, I do have the GameTreeMac installers backed up somewhere on an external hard drive. I don't remember whether you can use them without first connecting to GameTreeMac's servers, though, and I'm not sure what EA's policy on distributing them here would be.
