    You are equating “monopoly” with “abusive monopoly.”

    No, I’m not. I’m saying they aren’t a monopoly by the simple fact that they aren’t the only providers of the service they sell. And while they are currently in a position to use their power to make themselves a monopoly, they are not doing that and instead are playing fair with their competition.

      I refer you to the other comment subthread where I mentioned textbook examples of monopolies which had 80-odd percent market share, you asked me if Steam had that, I said yes, and then you went quiet.

      Don’t bring up points that you were already challenged on and had no reply to - it’s lying, because you already know it’s wrong.

        The gaming market is much larger than PC gaming.

        And Steam does not have an 80% market share on PC gaming, so who’s lying?

        And finally, who the fuck do you think you are that I owe you a response?
