Right? Steam provides better service and functionality than any other PC storefront. It's ridiculous that there's so much whining about them charging for it. So what if it's a higher percentage? It's also a better service and a large audience. Whoever doesn't like it is free to go elsewhere, unlike console games that can only be sold though the manufacturer's store.

If any digital game store deserved to be sue, it's Nintendo hand down. That's the real monopoly store with a "fuck you because we can" attitude.
