I'll admit I have marginally more trust in steam for ages verification than a lot of the other options.

As a parent of a small child, I'm very impressed with the options available via steam. Just the fact I can let them play games from my personal library surprised me. I don't need to buy them a copy.

The gambling thing is definitely something that needs addressing. It's one of the few black marks I have against valve.
