I'm putting it out here because it's buried in about 1300 comments.
This is my list of pros and cons, feel free to add your own in the comments below:

I like the fact that GOG is DRM free, otherwise I wouldn't be here; but I feel that the new site is at the beta stage.
Perhaps the old code was due for a rewrite because of all the patches that were applied over the years. Something we used to call spaghetti code, but where was the requirements document. Something as simple as "owned" games was not done right at all. The game reviews are even worse; no dates, no sorting.
To see where I'm coming from, look here.
Vote me up or down, and add your own comments please.
