They turned the game around from being generally available DRM-free, to DRM-free only being for the original backers. Those were the terms of the Kickstarter contract, so they are holding to exactly that and no more. The DRM-free downloads are promised to never get any expansion packs or DLC, backers will still have to use the Steam release to ever get those. I think it's safe to say that Shadowrun will get full DRM anywhere that it isn't specifically contractually obligated not to. If you keep asking, they just might throw in GFWL too ;)
