Valve: Linux More Open Than Windows 8 for Gaming
Does anyone find it bizarre that Valve is so upset about the Windows Store not being "open" when they, in Steam, run an app store that is far, FAR harder to get your software distributed in?

No, as the Windows store is baked into windows 8 so Microsoft controls to to bottom but steam only controls your games.

No, and I don't mind that it's impossible to get my code into all the other supplemental package repos you can use on Ubuntu either.
