The iTunes Store is older than the Steam Store.

Books aren't games, either, but you brought them up. Why are different forms of media valid when they support your argument but not when they don't?

The argument is about digital goods not just video games, but for the record they absolutely did.

You didn't read your own link. From your own Wikipedia link: First game released in 2006. 2 years after Steam.

"the argument isn't about games"? Then where is the non gaming publisher in the OP gif above?

They most definitely did. Maybe you should learn about the stuff you’re talking about before posting things that are completely wrong.

Maybe you should look up history before downvoting:

I do not see what your link has to do with your comment. iTunes did sell games, your comment was factually incorrect.
