Pavel thank you for your long years of under-appreciated service. SteamDB has been so beneficial to so many, gamers, devs, publishers, media.

The new Valve announcement on giving gifts has greatly the enhanced the ability to share games you love with friends around the world. But they're getting rid of physical gift cards. Does the debate about physical media extend to gift cards as well? Wdyt? #Steam #Valve #Gaming #Giftcards

This is distressing and unacceptable to many broad and varied communities, fandoms, but particularly to interactive media consumers, appreciators, and lifestyle enthusiasts. To Gamers.
