I personally disagree, I don't want to downplay the power of having stand alone applications - but having one application that can help me matchmake in games and helps keep all those games up to date while clearly (and non-obnoxiously) advertising new features or DLCs for those games. Steam does this things really cleanly and I don't want to return to the world where each application has to self-update whenever I launch it.
