All i wonder about is why people would be fine with some stuff on a steam machine which they didn't want to accept on Xbox One. Maybe I'm wrong but i don't think that I can resell my Bioshock Infinte disc since i used the code of it on Steam and it will be probably the same with all other games you register on steam and which you buy at retail.

With Xbox One you had at least the chance to sell it at registered retailers but with my retail games I registered on Steam?


because steams business model isn't changing.  xbox's business model was drastically changed. 

there is an audience for both but neither audience wants to be forced to change.


Also... lets be honest here.  Valve is a LOT more consumer friendly then Microsoft or Sony have ever been.

Valve has earned a lot of trust.

maybe.  but i'll stand by my point.  valve has been digital only since day 1.  their audience is entirely made up of those comfortable with that business model.  xbox (and playstation) has always been a physical/retail model.  their audience is comfortable with that model.  xbox can change if they really want but they have to use a "carrot on a stick" method not a "#deal with it" method and change has to be gradual.
