Solution: GOG becomes Gog. Acronym becomes a word and I don't need to learn a new pronunciation.

DRM-free? good
new games? I do not think I have PC to run them.
new price point? I rarely have spare cash to reach 9.99, so higher price will be mainly no for me

Going into competition with Steam and now Origin will not be easy, that's for sure.
Steam has a very dedicated customer base (for good reason) and Origin is trying to nick it with exclusives. Considering this I would say the one big advantage GOG would have when selling new titles would be the flat, US Dollar pricing. If they can keep this I definitely see myself switching from Steam to GOG for new releases.

I can do nothing but support this. Completely. :)
Edit:
As long as they also keep doing classics, of course. But it looks like they will, so all good! :D

Just take out the "O" - Good Games - or something.
Partially my fear, too; they may have to go for the DRM-free niche/position instead. (I'm taking an advertising class this semester so I'm kinda pretentious right now about this sort of thing. :P)

This has the potential to become either really awesome or really awful. I hope they know what they're doing.
