Default Re: SEV on Steam?

This is what I was hoping for, did anyone watch my video or read my posts properally?

as much as I am pro steam, I am anti digital distribution*, I think steam is a brilliant invention FOR PEOPLE WITH A FAST COMPUTER, AND FAST INTERNET, on my video, it shows me on a new pc, downloading steam, and then downloading half life at over 600kb/s then playing it within about 6-8 mins from start to finish!, I own a physical copy of half life.

I would love to be able to do what I did here, and buy a copy of sev, then register the serial key on steam, so then I can go to any pc, and just download the game, and put it in to a playable state quickly!

I am guessing this will be a either / or thing and not both, but as I said, steam really has its advantages.

* I have purchased upgrades through digital copys about 3 times as they gave a iso/bin to the file, and it was less than half the price of buying it normally, if I ever loose the file, I can re download for free, but I have a good working cd here!

by the way to fyron for a couple of your previous posts where you say about this, I am not against DRM in theory, content owners need a way to protect their work and enforce compliance. I am however against any sort of visable DRM that affects normal users, which is basically almost all drm products on the market today, please read that link I wrote in my earlier post, it will explain it all!
