Please elaborate on how this is "ironic"

By offering this as a bonus doesn't take away the offline installers and DRM Free content you buy from them.

It isn't being forced, and it isn't costing extra, so what's the issue?

I'm guessing GP was referring to the fact that the DRM-free download store is partnering with a "you don't actually own this" streaming service. As long as it's optional, I don't have an issue with it, and the word ironic doesn't necessarily imply that its a negative.
