Steam is the very last option to me. Not that I wouldn't like the ease of use, the ease of online shopping and playing... But I hate how you cannot turn off the automatic updates and how it doesnt even tell you its going to download, or downloading right now, something. If those DAILY apparently 20-30mb patches arent vital and why would they be, for Steam's functioning, why the heck cant they be downloaded whenever the user wants to?
This is especially annoying, as the bandwidth usage is not just random, but also happens when I'm playing a Steam game. I don't have an 8mb/s connection and I'm not going to get one any soon, so the way Steam currently works, its not an option.
