And all it cost was having a store sell DRM software.

To be fair, as far as DRM is concerned Steam is pretty mild and game developers gotta eat.

They also sell non-DRM software. And most importantly they invest the money they make from selling those games into developing Linux so it's better for everyone, I'll take a corporation that uses my money to make things better for myself than one that sells "only" DRM free" games (when it's convenient, because GoG also sells DRMd games in case you didn't knew)
