I trust Steam to maintain my library the same as any bank with my money. I don’t feel that way toward any other service.

Totally fair, too. I used to "own" Resident Evil 4 on Xbox 360, but it didn't count the same once the Xbox One released. Suddenly the license was revoked, and I was expected to repurchase the game.
Steam has, so far, kept its word for most of us.
