I don't have any problems with someone who prefers not to use Steam 
because they're "subscribing" to the game. What I do have a problem with 
is the likes of Lewis who rants about Steam as though people who use it 
don't understand what's going on and only he can see the "truth". Of 
course the fact that he then admits to buying games through Steam just 
makes his "arguments" even more laughable.
