I've always ABHORRED ATI's Radeon cards and driver model and still mourn the day AMD bought that company. But I'll sell all my NVIDIA hardware and switch to AMD cards before I am FORCED to download drivers via GeForce Experience (which I've never installed and never will). ALL drivers must be available for download directly from NVIDIA's websites, PERIOD.

I use shadowplay on a regular basis, and occasionally use gamestream on my UMPC, you don't have to use Nvidia's optimization BS... that being said forcing people to download drivers through GFE alone is bad news, not every PC has internet access these days... anything that takes my choices from me is bad news
