I really like this idea. This should hopefully get more titles onto Steam.

EDIT: More info direct from Steam

Really cool concept, kinda like kickstarter without the funding I guess? (Didn't read the whole page about it, so I might of missed that part.)

Yeah it's basically Kickstarter on Steam but without the funding.

DRM is like kids. The less you have, the better.

But you support Steam? O_o

Anyway, this is a pretty decent idea. Works in two favourable ways for Valve: Less work for Valve and better community support.

Here's what I mean by that.
1. The ideal number of kids is zero - same goes for DRM on games.
2. Given that it's almost impossible to reach that goal for various reasons, we have to settle for as few kids (and as little DRM) as we can.
