Yes, but short of PS exclusives, steam has a far larger library and I just need the PC I was always going to have rather than going out of my way to buy a console; also more than just this story, apparently Sony is taking away people's movies that they paid for. If I buy something on steam or GOG, 99.99% of the time I'm keeping it for life (there's apparently a handful of games that were taken off stores AND people's libraries).
EDIT: Additionally Sony is apparently shutting down their....PS3 stores? I'm not sure if this means your digital PS3 games can no longer be downloaded, if the store will no longer work on the PS3. Even if it only means it won't work on the PS3 any more, it means my PS3 will only be good for playing hard copy games I own.
