Steam? I guess you could say Steam is the platform but in the past Mac was a seperate platform and except for a handful of exceptions like Blizzard games usually required a seperate purchase. These days buying on Steam gets you the Windows/Mac/Linux versions if available. GOG is similar too. But buying off the Mac app store just gets you the Mac version (why does anyone buy off there ever?).
Sony has also done some crossbuy stuff in the past. Their PS1 classics used to be generally PS3/PSP/Vita compatible and some titles were cross PS3/Vita/PS4 like Spelunky or PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale. Microsoft has done some cross Xbox/PC stuff too although you have to buy from their store.
