and steam is the largest game store, but that’s not what i was talking about.
microsoft’s money doesn’t come just from windows, and from seeing how shitty it has (and will) become, they want to get more money from it than they already have. that could be because windows doesnt produce enough money for microsoft or for other reasons.
google’s money comes from advertisements. as google grew to be used everywhere, there needed to be a better way to get money from it, so they started doing more advertising.
just like google’s search engine, firefox doesn’t produce money by itself. but mozilla didn’t have any other means of producing money, so they had to do something else for that, even if it didn’t work.
valve’s money comes from the games and items sold in steam. people aren’t going to stop producing or buying games and in-game items any time soon.
all of the other companies had to change their main way to produce money, because that wasn’t producing enough money. but if valve changes anything they’ll just be shooting themselves in the foot, because steam already produces an almost ulimited amount of money for valve.
