He could easily fleece his users in so many ways if he wanted to. Many of us are in so deep with Steam that it would take something truly heinous to pry us away from our game libraries, and the next-best service to Steam is absolute dog shit.

Saying he can’t make more evil, exploitative choices because it would be bad business ignores the fact that nearly every modern company makes evil, exploitative choices no matter how little business sense it makes. Honestly, I’m exhausted by just how rarely companies act in their own self interest and just let us continue giving them money instead of shooting themselves in the foot.
