There are many reasons not to use Steam but for the sake of brevity here are a few:

*If you buy a retail game that uses Steam you cannot play it unless you have internet access.

*Regardless if you buy the game at the shop Steam will still insist you download it over your internet connection to play it, even if this takes all day.

*You must have the Steam application on your computer to play your game and this sets itself to run on startup using your system resources until you manually disable it.

*The accounts system is seriously flawed and you can easily end up with multiple accounts you cannot access and randomly-generated passwords.

*If you accidentally register a game to one account Steam will not let you transfer it to your main account.

*Steam will not delete your personal information on request, even though this is illegal.

*Steam provides no email address, telephone number or mail address for customers to contact them (only a support ticket system), even though these are legal website requirements in Europe.

Be warned and do not make the mistake of purchasing Steam products!
