I'm still on Origin. I'll only move when/if I have to. When they switched from the EA Downloader to Origin, I lost a bunch of packs and had to deal with customer service for a long time trying to fix it, only to discover some packs were no longer supported. I didn't get them back until they released Sims 2 Ultimate Collection. (They did give me a free Sims 3 pack as a way of reimbursing me). I also lost all the stuff I'd purchased in the Sims 2 store and didn't get that back until years later.

As an aside, does anyone else find it humorous that they had an "EA" app, went to Origin, and are now going back to an "EA" app?

Humorous, no; ominous, yes. It gives the impression that what was discarded as inferior to be replaced by Origin is now being gone back to. Not a good feeling.
