It looks like since steambox didn't do as well as Valve wanted they are looking for other ways to get more users on steam.

Phil Spencer said to time magazine.

"I’m not probably supposed to say this, but I sat down before this show with the leaders of Valve, and I showed them Scorpio and what we’re doing . . . Valve and Steam specifically is a massive part of the PC gaming community today, it’s growing like crazy, it will continue to grow. I think it’s got a long, great future ahead of it. I think as the platform holder of Windows, I think there are things we should be doing to make Windows 10 a great gaming experience," Spencer told TIME.

The problem is ms will basically be "taxing" valve on every game sold and I doubt valve is cool with that. But we'll see. Steam on a console would be big (that isn't branded steam box)

Personally steam on Xbox Scorpio would be huge for both Microsoft and Valve.

I'm very glad about MS and Valve making peace. It would be awesome if MS allow Steam on Xbox, or at leas some kind of collab.

Need more info than that. It's unlikely you will get the entire Steam Games library on Xbox One ever. (Due to money, quality control etc'.)
So what kind of extent are we talking here? Cross-play titles? Chat?
I wouldn't complain if I could buy my Xbox One and Xbox 360 games on Steam, that would be the plug that makes me go 100% digital even on console... And then have them playable remotely on any PC in my home via Streaming to a Steam client would be a winner.

That's being a little optimistic though. :P

There are a LOT of things Windows 10 "should" be doing.
Go back to 32win files for your games for one things. In sticking to Universal Windows Apps on your own storefront, not only have you fixed what wasn't broken, you replaced it with something that IS broken from the perspective of the wants and needs of your potential customers.
Windows storefront COULD be a great platform. It isn't, not by a country mile, it's fucking abysmal at the moment. But it CAN be turned around.
