I think Steam might be the only private company in this.

Really says a lot.

It does.

Private companies are - often - not driven by pure greed. The people work hard for their company to be successful and they are much less likely to fuck it all over with a stupid move.

Public companies, however, are controlled by a bunch of money motivated monkeys that couldn’t give a rats ass about a company’s future. They’ll bleed it all dry and go to the next company.

Dude, Steam is selling games you don’t own. How greedy is that?

Like most game platforms do, except Valve actually looks after their customers.

What, like ebay and amazon selling stuff they don’t own? They all get a commission for marketing, not all of the money.

Very true, sometimes they are also motivated by their hatred of gay and trans people.
