Emob78: ...it's just not correct to call [Steam a] monopoly guy.
Actually it is, with 125 million accounts and growing Steam has no real competitors.
Emob78: Not only is it untrue, but it dismisses all of the other competition that Steam does indeed have... such as GOG.
Being a monopoly does not require a company face no competition and GoG is not a direct competitor as most of its games are marginal and dustbin titles representing an insignificant number of pc game sales.
Emob78: And without GOG, this forum wouldn't exist, therefore we wouldn't be having this conversation...
This forum is not at all relevant to an understanding of monopoly.
