In a meeting with the Better Business Bureau, Capcom states they see no difference between content which is locked on purpose on the disc and providing the same content in a traditional DLC way.
They feel it actually benefits the consumer more if the content or at least the majority of the content is already on the disc to make future DLC downloads a lot quicker and save space on their hard drives.
Their official statement to the Better Business Bureau:
Quote:
At Capcom, we value our customers and make every effort to resolve customer complaints. We are sorry to hear that [censored] was so disappointed with the Street Fighter x Tekken game (”SFxT”), and would like to respond to his complaints.
SFxT has an enormous amount of content, fully developed and available for play and enjoyment immediately on-disc. Given the 38 characters available for full play, as well as multiple play modes, SFxT provides great value for all players from day one. While Capcom is sorry that some of its fans are not happy about the chosen method of delivery for the DLC, we believe that this method will provide more flexible and efficient gameplay throughout the game’s lifecycle. There is effectively no distinction between the DLC being ”locked” behind the disc and available for unlocking at a later date, or being available through a full download at a later date, other than delivery mechanism.
We hope that this addresses [censored]‘ concerns.

They made no mentions in regards to their pricing policies which also was a major complaint against Capcom for SFxT and other games released by them in recent years.
