lol I'm as anti-capitalist as the next internet leftist, and I absolutely think it would be fucking awesome if Steam were replaced by a national digital distribution service that have flat costs for publishing, and high quality standards before allowing a game to be published. Gold-digging lawsuits aren't on the path to that better world though.

Not sure I'd trust a national distribution service (especially in the UK) more though
