DRM-Free will be always better than having DRM, even though Steam tries to bribe their costumers with small features in order to distract them from the fact that they can't use their licenses as they please, even though you can use DRM-Free titles on Steam and use all of its features. This is not a discussion over picking blue over red or wearing sandals or flip flops. It's sheer, pulsating stupidity and you're only pushing it down the moronic scale even further with your erroneously ironic statement. I like discussing with people and sharing ideas on different topics, but what's being shown here is not a demonstration of preference, or an opinion, or a even deep analysis on something. They can play/listen to whatever they want, they may dress like they want, they may do whatever they want as long as it does not affect me, and I hope (and have the right) to be treated the same way. I'm all for subjectivity and allowing people to express themselves the way they see fit. Summarizing: No, people who prefer Steam licenses over DRM-free copies are still stupid. Some people have the idea that Steam is easier to use on the go if you travel a lot and that is a false statement, because it only works if you have internet access, which means that if your laptop isn't connected to the internet everytime you turn it on, Steam won't work even on Offline mode. There's a crystal clear advantage in DRM-Free titles, and if you claim that Steam is superior because "Steam sort of organizes it for me" then you seriously need to grow up because unrestricted software in categorized files are much more maneuverable and easier to organize than some huge vertical list. Specially if they're refusing to purchase the product by more than a dime ONLY because it comes absolutely DRM-Free. People who'd rather have a tied license to their Steam account over a DRM-Free product that can be easily manipulated and stored around are, by definition, stupid.
Third, automatic updates are a commodity and not an advantage or an exclusive feature. Second, Steam Backups are for re-installing the game quicker with a logged in account, which means that if you lose your Steam account or even internet access, your "backup" means shit, while DRM-Free titles can be burned on CDs and stored in various places.
First, Achievements are not an advantage in any way, or even a slightly relevant feature unless you have some serious social issues.
