Yes, and so may BYD. I have no idea what are you arguing for.

They will kill anyone else, like GoG, or any attempted contender.

But if they could, they would kill Steam in a heartbeat.

The reason is as bland and unpoetic as you might imagine:

companies put billions into this trend, and they want their money back.

Do not believe the lies about free market and companies losing money: they just pass their losses onto their customers. Don't like it? Fuck off, and pay more for everything anyway.
