I think we can all agree that DRM is unacceptable. This isn't in question.
I was unaware that Steam was so heavily laden with DRM.
Still, I think that SteamOS can be a step in the right direction if we can
ensure that the OS itself contains only free software. Free graphics drivers,
Linux-libre, etc. Then the only non-free parts will be the Steam application,
and the games themselves.
Such a platform could serve as a good starting point in an effort to obtain
or develop a free drop-in replacement for Steam, or even to get Valve to
agree to free Steam and remove the DRM. (Of course, games will still insist
on DRM for a while, unless we can apply sufficient pressure).
Once we have a free OS and a free Steam, we can move on to pressuring the
developers of the most popular game engines to free their software.
