4) The Other OS was only taken down AFTER someone started bragging about the ability to copy $60 PS3 games and play them.
What? When did that happen? Maybe that's just me, but I don't recall geohot, or anyone else, making such claim.

For starters, let me just say that if you're purchasing boxed copies of games that require STEAM to play, you're doing it wrong. Not only you missing out on one of the biggest things that makes STEAM so great, bypassing the retailer and downloading straight to your hard drive, but games are generally cheaper on STEAM as well, sometimes even shockingly so.
That depends on region you are living in. In my area, brand new box copies are usually way cheaper than steam digital download. Thanks to that and some completely nonsenical policies of the past, like EUR=USD, steam usually leaves unpleasant aftertaste. It still beter than other systems though and it's not like we have a choice, do we?
