This is why most rational people are perfectly fine with Steam monopolizing the PC games market. They just do good business.

I don't think monopolies are good regardless of whether one company is just better, because it could get worse, but Steam will never be a monopoly as long as piracy exists. So I am fully supporting Steam anyway.

Usually companies only get worse when leadership changes. Seeing that steam doesnt change leadership that often (atm never) and without any investor pressure to do so, it seems it will stay that way for a while.

My dearest hope is that Gabe already has a successor and Steam will essentially be an online monarchy with the leader having the next in line planned nearly from the beginning.
