Why would you feel a cut is way too much!? Because it is their cut.... Oh yeah that is called reading comprehension something that you apparently lack, maybe it is a ESL thing. If so don't worry English is hard otherwise nice way to burn yourself I suppose. If that is the case I do appreciate self-deprivation humor.
If you read the article that referenced the lawsuit you would see this is not about steam keys. Why you would think this shows a clear lack of understanding of what we are talking about.
I have restated several times what the anti competitive practice Steam has engaged in. I won't say it again because it is getting annoying at this point.
When I said intimately, I was referencing to your deep understanding of development hence the IDE reference. I guess you didn't get it because you are not a developer/programmer yourself. Or maybe it is the ESL thing.
I would agree that plenty of people are satisfied or even happy with Steam. Of course there are a bunch of people who don't like Steam as well. I don't like Steam, but I have used it so I am sure Gabe can wipe away his tears with the money I have given him.
