Steam

Steam is self-described as 'The Nexus of PC gaming'. It is a digital distribution platform for PC titles which also contains advanced social networking features, digital rights management (DRM) and a multiplayer gaming network. Established in 2003 as a content delivery service for Valve products, it expanded to become the largest destination for digital delivery of PC gaming titles. It is estimated that Steam maintains the lions share of the market in terms of units sold and dollar value for products.
