But unlike Steam, GOG is DRM free, _major_ plus point IMO.

Checked it and there are not many games online yet. They have a nice 'buy one get one free' thingy going on for the rest of the beta phase. So you can get 2 games for 5.99$ (only once of course ) which isn't bad

another huge point with GOG is that you don't have to run their application like in steam's case. (1GB application that has to be connected to internet in the order for you to play game(s) you've purchased.
