What's with all this EA bashing?

What's with most of the gaming community bashing EA? OK, their track record with many games aren't the greatest (especially with their sports games), but they have really smartened up. Most of EA's releases (published and developed) nowadays are great games. Look at Sims 3, NHL09 and MANY others. Great games, with amazing porduction values. Not only that, their upcoming game lineup has been great. NHL 10 and Mass Effect 2 to say the least. So what if EA buys out a company? It just makes the studio that much better with all that money backing it. They've also rescued several games from being vapourware (APB). Also, without EA, we wouldn't have great sports games, a big RTS genre and much more.

They've ruined their rep too much, pooping out a new game each year, getting worse and worse. NFS, all of those sports games, etc. Oh and they messed up C&C pretty good.

EA is cool now, they are publishing some really good games, Activision is now the tool of the industry.
