Valve invented the "we can violate copyright laws because it's on a computer"

That stunt was invented by the music industry first. It was a hit with publishers. Valve helped the publishers do the same shit with video games and it's still awful, but they weren't the inventors.

It boils down to the same issues of predatory copyright laws that have been perverted into a twisted mockery of the good intentions they were initially supposed to serve.
