Only recently got it myself, so I didn't experience it when it launched. I find it relatively comparable to Steam, but obviously the game content is lacking because I'll grab something on Steam before anything else.
I find the download speed is worse for me, Steam downloads faster.
However Origin beats out Steam in one aspect - listed prices are in Australian dollars. When I pay $40 for Battlefront, I'm actually paying $40. Not the conversion from $40 USD that Steam makes me pay. So, yeah. Get your shit on that, Steam.
