I've never paid for DLC, and I never will. Screw those bastards. This crap is why I don't purchase games anymore, I rent them and run through them in a week or less (some games in one day, they're so short). If they can make GTA profitable selling it at $60 for the full game, there's no excuse.
...but if people are dumb enough to pay twice what the game cost for some DLC, I can hardly blame companies for providing it.

Boosting this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing - declared quality by Mordhaus.

I wouldn't say all DLC is bad, some of it is fine and is pretty much just the modern term for expansion pack. I thought most of the Skyrim DLC was fine (except Hearth Fires I can download way better player palaces than what you could build with that), and a lot of the Borderlands 1 and 2 stuff was decent as well. Horse armor aside, Shivering Isles for Elder Scrolls Oblivion pretty awesome too.

I just wait until they throw in the DLC for free in GotY packages or it becomes really cheap in some sale. Most of the time I don't care about the DLC anyways as it's quite often MP stuff (Call Of Duty for example, never bought a single piece of DLC for those). I don't like 13 year old sexist racists, so I do SP only.
If it's worthwhile stuff (like the Skyrim add-ons or the extra Mortal Kombat characters), DLC is fine but if it's shit like horse armour or an extra pistol nobody needs, I'll ignore it.
I only get mad when the publisher fuck with the customers. The only reason I forgave Square Enix the Missing Link DLC fuckery is because it was really great.

I dunno that there is anything wrong with the train simulator DLC. I'm not personally familiar with it but I think that's comparable to the "DLC" for Flight Simulator X, which if you bought all of it would probably easily be in the tens of thousands of dollars. It's all extra content made by third parties though. That's really the way DLC is supposed to work. It doesn't necessarily have to be created by third parties, but does have to be *new* additional content.

I never paid for the regular prices. I usually wait for sales! Since I don't game these days, I don't have to worry about those sales.
