Quoting: MajGuanoAlso, this article seems a little off-topic for this site. It's GamingOnLinux, not SteamOnLinux. What does this news have to do with this site's core topic?

I love when people get so arrogant in a way they tends to forgot the FACTS of the topic.

Quite simple, like it or not, without Valve/Steam there would not be such a thing like "gaming on linux", dont forget it.

And then while the 1% of the internet is still crying about DRM stuff, the other 99% is just login on their software of their preference for gaming or watching movies with zero problems.
But lets see how people loves to talk about "back up" their movies they "own" (funny fact you never will ever own a game, movie or music, read the eula, you are renting even if you are allowed to download it to your PC), which for me means you will be copying the movie in your friends/family usb so they dont have to pay a penny because you already did pay for it, right? If that is what you want, you can still get DVDs/Bluray disc but no, you want it cheaper, and why not, free!! Thats why this DRM-free topic will be still here in 20 years, the 1% still crying about why digital stuff are tied to DRM software, simple, because people will always abuse in some way of their rights. Steam at least let you share your games on family share with its inconvenients, but some people wants all the games on GOG because is so easy to copy an installation folder to a USB storage card to "share" it and thats why in 20 years you will see how GOG is still 10 years behind Steam in game releases. Good luck waiting for digital DRM-free stuff.
