Seems simple enough.

You still have all the features and utility that some find great, without having your credit card at the mercy of yet another online security weak point.

Also, is it not possible to purchase credits for use on Steam from brick and mortar stores? This would be the way to go actually.

And I didnt bought anything via steam (its expensive btw)....paypal has way more users and much much better protection system....steam accounts leaked via forum which tells you something about steam.....they are not serious.....

Yup, I had nothing but troubles with my PayPal account. Really difficult to get them to delete it as well. Took several less than diplomatically worded emails/chat sessions to get them to cancel my account and delete all my info.

Never again.

Expensive? The cheapest deals on games in the world, and you are calling it expensive? If steam is expensive then Mirko Filipović isn't a useless old lady with a glass jaw.

Every year I go into B of A and hand them my Visa Card in exchange for a new one ... not fool proof but it makes me feel better.
