I see posts talking about good BIFL items but I don’t hear much about the other side of products that are bad or products you bought but don’t even use.

My Steam library
Have I got some good news for you then.
One cannot buy digital content with DRM, only rent it.
It’s impossible to regret acquisitions you’ve never made.
Point in case. You can sell on your physical games. Not so much the digital ones.
All that said, I too use Steam, just not mainly anymore.
Have you tried selling physical PC games lately?
DRM has nothing to do with how you buy your content (DVDs and Blurays also have DRM, for example).
Also some Steam games have no DRM.
Or buying them, for that matter?
I was thinking of sites like GOG when I wrote my comment.
I have never heard of a Steam game you could run without having Steam installed
This used to be true, but not anymore (if you live in the EU)! https://www.eurogamer.net/eu-rules-publishers-cannot-stop-you-reselling-your-downloaded-games
That said I know what you’re saying and this change doesn’t make it so you own the games, they’re just allowing you to resell the right to download and play on Steam, blabla. But it’s better than it used to be.
That’s amazing. How do I sell my steam games ? is there a way ?
You know, indie devs want to eat and be rewarded for their work
Than sell an actual product DRM free or something, I’m not renting shit anymore.
Then buy on gog.com
I do.
Where in my comment does it state that I don’t pay indie devs?
I spend money on Steam, but I have no allusions that I’m not owning the things I get there.
I’d much rather have a title on GOG than Steam. At least there I get to keep it.
