    That’s the connection to the post, but it’s not a connection to the parent comment and also not Valve’s decision

      The original comment is also describing DRM. Look I know and understand that steam works great and is easier than piracy but that doesn’t mean it isnt DRM.

        Okay, sure. I don’t think either I or the parent comment said it wasn’t DRM, I just read the parent comment as explaining the sentence that was described as ambiguous. The question remains: how is that DRM Steam’s fault?

          One drive DRM isnt their fault but steam itself is DRM for any of the games you bought there. You cannot access your steam games without your log in and that is DRM. On the spectrum between spotify and bandcamp, steam is much closer to spotify in terms of your ownership of the media you payed for.

          Edit: if you’re confused about conversational tangents then I cant’t explain that to you
