These two sentences reinforce what the OP is saying, you aren't arguing facts, you are arguing impact. OP is saying we are underestimating the impact DRM should have on our decision, to which you responded "it doesn't bother me". That fact isn't important to this discussion.
I also use Steam, enjoy it, think they are a great company, and won't be stopping anytime soon. However it is certainly true that unlike GOG their platform is based around DRM.

What measures can you take to prevent Valve from banning you? For instance some people have lost their Steam accounts because they used Paypal and there was a disagreement between the two over a charge.
I control the physical media, I can't control Valve's authentication system.
- glurgh 13y agoIt's a little difficult to believe you're actually trying to have a conversation about this when you selectively misquote what I said - you chopped off the bit where I said I was quoting/paraphrasing the OP and then claim my own words are reinforcing what the OP is saying. Well, of course they are, I was quoting the OP! And I think for the most part, I am relying on facts - it's the OP that appeals to emotions - 'poison', 'heavily encumbered', suggesting Valve's motivations for quality service is to trick their customers into accepting DRM. Based on, well, nothing but opinion. My experience may be anecdotal but it is factual.
