    The problem is that Steam have a dominant position on the market, when you do that regulations are different. Some markets with natural monopolies like energy distribution for example can’t raise prices without being approved by a regulator, and so on. Again, the problem is not asking the same price for itself, is doing it while controlling+80% of the PC gaming market.

      Which jurisdictions have this regulation? I’m pretty sure there’s no such thing as a leading retailer having to implement a disadvantageous sales agreement for the sake of their competition.
