Steam's new disclaimer reminds everyone that you don't actually own your games, GOG moves in for the killshot: Its offline installers 'cannot be taken away from you' - eviltoast
The concept of a "digital license" isn't new, but there's no pretending you didn't know about it anymore.

    People use steam because it’s good service, and a good product.

    In fact, they also gave Linux a boost

    They also have things like cloud saving

    Developers use them because apparently they have some awesome features too for things like multiplayer and such and a great API

      I like steam as a user but it’s still proprietary software and I’m slightly concerned about what is going to happen when Gabe Newell steps down as president and ceo of Valve.
