yeah it's because the publishers have higher margins on epic sales that way.

like, yeah, we want this market to be fair, and if what the wolfire guys say is true then it's a problem. but remember, they started this suit when they ran a competing store! wolfire started humble bundle! and humble's main thing is keys! and i don't know how many other devs are affected by this, but wolfire is driving it and nobody else seems to talk about it.
