Default Re: SEV on Steam?

Personally, I very much dislike the idea of buying something that does not exist in any other form than on my computer hard drive. Call me old-fashioned, but I like to have a disc in my hand, something physical that I can sell, copy, etc as I choose. Things like Steam make it difficult to exercise your rights as a consumer. Not to mention the fact that the whole "big brother" thing just isn't for me. I don't need some corporation to know whenever I play the game, how long I do it, etc etc ad nauseum. Not to mention the fact that a whole lot of people don't have high-speed internet, like me. It's just way too expensive if you live outside of a city. Which 50% of the world's population does. That's alienating a lot of your potential consumer base.
