Correct me if I'm wrong but the agreement would not be binding and/or legally valid until I or someone downloaded or started using something new. I don't recall any such statement saying EA could change the EULA and we're automatically subjected to the latest EULA.

Now, the only thing I can see on that link is an EULA directly relating to EAOnline, and not third party websites....but let's not let Fenris pointing people to the wrong part of the website cloud our judgement of him/her
One bit caught my eye though.
Quote from: "EAOnline EULA"
EA respects the intellectual property rights of others. You may not upload or post on EA Online any Content protected by copyright, trademark or other intellectual property rights (the “Intellectual Property Rights”) unless (i) you are the owner of the Intellectual Property Rights; or (ii) you have the prior written consent of the owner(s) of the Intellectual Property Rights to make such use of the applicable Content. EA may, without prior notice to you, remove from EA Online any Content that EA in its sole business judgment believes may infringe the Intellectual Property Rights of a third party. If you are a repeat infringer of a third party’s Intellectual Property Rights, EA may immediately terminate your EA Account without prior notice to you. If your Account is terminated, no refund will be granted, and you will lose access to everything associated with your Account (such as points, virtual property and tokens).
Is it just me, or does that suggest that I.P. rights are now held by the content creators, and not E.A.?
