Having games on your disk without DRM. That IS ownership. There are ways for Steam to make it so customers own games, but it is not in their best interest to do so.
Valve is not very different from any other company. The only difference is that since Valve is privately owned they can afford to make long-term plans, unlike publicly traded companies which have a fiduciary responsibility to chase profits every quarter.
