> It blows my mind how the software and larger entertainment industries refuse to learn the lessons of Steam IMO it’s because so many people in large companies want to avoid ownership and responsibility. It’s like that old saying “nobody got fired for contracting IBM.” Nobody gets fired for going with intrusive DRM. It’s good for the company! My understanding of Valve is that it’s a small-ish high-ownership company.
