As I've said before, there need to be priority levels for the content
servers:
Servers before clients.  Paid clients before free clients. <- this last only

And before the "clients make Valve money, servers don't" argument comes up,
I'd like to point out that without updated servers, clients won't have very
much to do ingame.
