"Buy" games on Steam? Sure wish they let you own them.

Some are DRM free and can be backed up at your leisure. I'm pretty sure that's up to the developer to implement or not.

It would be neat if steam let you sell a game back, but I'm not sure how to square that with "you have a drm free copy that's trivial to copy"
