Valve abusing the market power of Steam on game pricing according to a lawsuit

Quoting: TheSHEEEP
Quoting: SuppenSounds like a well deserved lawsuit
The equivalent would be Amazon not allowing sellers lower prices outside of Amazon's marketplace.
Fun fact: Amazon DID get slapped by a lawsuit for doing exactly that.

Steam Link hardware officially walks the plank, there's an app for that

Killing the steam link is probably killing game streaming for me once the hardware breaks down. I'm not going to connect a TV to my network. Those things are practically spies, spambots and hackme's all rolled into one.

Albion Online developer explains why existing owners won't see a Steam key

If that's true (and it is on other platforms: iTunes, Google Play) then what would the alternative be? Give everyone a steam key but increase the price of IAPs by whatever cut Valve takes? People'd be up in arms against that as well.

In the end, if you want a game on a specific platform, don't buy it elsewhere. Devs and publishers are under no obligation to gift you access to the game elsewhere, especially with key reselling still being a big thing.
