You know what I find more annoying then that? Defending a monopoly that's rent seeking to the tune of a million dollars of revenue per employee per year, and that's with most of the employees literally being paid to work on nothing.

In which market is Steam a monopoly?

the one that occupies the vast emptiness of masterspace's cranium, I'd wager.

Developers are allowed to distribute their games directly to consumers. Thats not rent seeking or a monopoly.
