Yes, I hate steam as well. It's as much a scheme for them to make more money than about piracy. Once you purchase a game, it's yours and you shouldn't have hassles to use it. Piracy is a problem but it's THEIR problem and they shouldn't transfer the crap of dealing with it on their customers. It's also a question of greed. Even with piracy, the game industry makes tens of billions, more than the film industry. These games a grossly over priced. The profit margin is huge. Like other big businesses, they want to squeeze every penny they can out of the consumers and are not interested in simply making a decent, fair profit. Lastly, when you buy a book, which is soon to go extinct, you can pass it out to anyone you want. That has been true for hundreds of years. Did the publishers and authors ever complained about it? Did they try to put some kind of self destruct mechanism in the book once you read it like in Mission Impossible?

I agree with everything I read here so far (all negative). All I wanted to do was install 6 GIG's of Train Sim and ended up with STEAM too. I have since uninstalled it all. And if I do recall correctly, STEAM has the right to disable your game, your copy of STEAM, and your STEAM account for any reason whatsoever.
