@arstechnica Steam vs. Apple App Store isn't really comparable? The App Store is the only way to load applications onto an iOS device; if you don't want to list your game on Steam, though, you can... just sell the binary? You're stuck either saying that Steam doesn't provide additional value (in which case, why are you so set on getting your game on there?) or that it does (in which case, again, it's not really comparable to the App Store, which serves mostly a gatekeeping function).
