Also developers can generate a unlimited number of Steam keys for their games that they can sell on other platforms and steam doesn't take any money for. So you can make MyCoolGame throw it on Steam then sell copies of your game on MyCoolGame.com give your customers Steam keys and keep the whole price while still benefiting from Valve's infrastructure to support downloads, friend lists, updates ect.
