A future change in leadership could very easily lead to it going public and then all the regular bullshit follows. Don't just assume it'll always be great; always be ready to jump ship.

I get worried with the amount of gamers who want Steam to be a monopoly. The existence of competition seems to upset some people and it's really odd.
