I think you completely missed SJ's point...

There is also the destruction of reselling the game or giving it as a gift just by giving them the CD. Valve has no right to know that I got tired of the game and gave it to someone else, and that should not cost any money! I don't have to pay Parker Brothers to give you my Monopoly set, why should I have to pay Valve to give you my HL?

Steam is all about the destruction of fair use and rampant invasion of privacy... This, and being tied to the fortunes and whims of the company to keep playing the game, is why I personally do not like Steam. The negatives greatly outweigh the positives.
