@firecat @EU_Commission that elsewhere is the console market, which by definition is singular platforms where only their manufacturers can sell games. Those console publishers in comparison are closer to Apple than Valve.

The PC market is more analogous to the Android market, except even more freer there as the executable format, hardware format, and software format is not locked into by a single OEM or group of OEMs subject to another market owner like Google with the Open Handset Alliance. Valve leads PC by default, but they do not own the market like Apple does on their devices, the console companies on their devices, or even lead to the level of Google on their devices.
