PC - Direct2Drive vs Steam? - View Post

I've been checking a lot of similar threads on other forums, and a couple of articles. Seems almost everyone says D2D is a decent service, but they prefer Steam... Hmm...

I still haven't understood exactly how D2D operates though.

Like, a download platform.

Basically imagine steam without all the community aspects, firends lists etc... or at least that's how i remember it.  Haven't used it in forever.

Found a comparison link that seems fairly helpful.
