Software licenses, yes. But games bought over Steam isn't a license to said game, as Steam has cleverly stated that you don't purchase the game, but merely the right to use it through Steam. By calling it a subscription, they cleverly avoid the law.

The only license mentioned in the Steam Subscriber Agreement is the Steam-client itself. Everything else is handled as subscriptions, which basically means that Steam can do whatever they want, whenever they want with whatever you've "subscribed" to.

It's one of the dirty little secrets of Steam, and one that damn near everyone either don't know about or don't care about.
