Errr, what were we talking about then?

Explained in the post that starts with  "I'm not saying they shouldn't monetize their service at all" .  Please read it. 

(Oh, and we do know how well Steam is doing: astronomically. Google 'steam sales 100%' and you'll see for yourself.) 

Eh. But you're still arguing that other companies aren't monetizing their services, therefore Microsoft is "unnecessarily" monetizing their services, which implies: you shouldn't monetize your service.

You say stuff, but you're ultimately just complaining about Microsoft trying to make money through ads.

"You say stuff, but you're ultimately just complaining about Microsoft trying to make money through ads."

This is just insulting now, it's the third time you've ignored what I said. 

You seem to purposefully ignore both the key distinctions in my argument and the facts I put forward to support them , it's not very fun debating with that kind of person, nor do I wish to continue it. 

You made a blanket statement that companies need to monetize digital distribution services as much as possible to survive, this is disproved by steam among others, it's that simple.
