    Well, I don’t think they’re interested in selling directly. There’s a lot of overhead in handling credit card payments and dealing with the jurisdictional issues of sales tax, currency conversion, and regional age and content restrictions.

    Your notion sounds perfectly lovely from the consumer side, but from the creator side it’s not much different from not using the system at all.

      Yes. But those would be able to chose whatever distributor fits them better. Humble, GOG, itchio, whatever… For the user it would all be the same.
