I did not realize they were trying to compete in the first place.

      Steam also never took it’s eye off the piracy ball. Offer up a service better than free piracy.

      Just pulling from my memory:

      • Family Share
      • Easy controller support
      • Game Casting
      • Gameplay recording
      • “Invisible Login” for social network
      • Torrent from a local area network friend who has the game on their computer
      • (list goes on)

        Exactly. Steam makes it easier and better than piracy. That said I paid for my games. I recognize that they say they’re a license or whatever, but nah, they remove access, I go get what I’ve purchased elsewhere.
