Well, I'll put it this way. Valve is awesome, it is doing fine by its self and doesn’t need a billion dollar company to buy it out.

Look at what Google did to youtube, it turned a site that was pure awesome, i think it was the best concept for a website ever and turn it into a money hording cow. Youtube used to be about show people what you have to say or show them something really cool, now its just about turning over a profit and the introduction of partner videos and over the top advertising.

Now if they did that to valve I would be very sad, valve is distinguishing its self from the crowd and does a really good job of offering the best online games distribution of the lot as well as releasing only the best games. It seems like every time Google touches another company it ends badly so I really don’t want them to have anything to do with Valve.
