Valve isn't pulling any anticompetitive moves though. They just try to secure profits by being the best instead of destroying everyone else that dares to compete with them.

Beeing not assholes against their own users are basically anticompetitive these days. ;)

Well, they are allegedly forcing price parity on publishers, so they can't sell cheaper on their own website or some other storefront that takes smaller cuts. That's anticompetitive as shit, and they are being sued over it.

That parity thing was debunked 2 years ago when a similar lawsuit against Valve was dismissed, their parity thing is for resold Steam keys, which Valve issues with no profit margin. Milberg London are trolls that tried to do the same lawsuit against Sony and PlayStation last year. Also got nowhere.
