I'm not sure if they really have standing for that.

But even if they did, Microsoft don't have the guts because cracking down it would be akin to a direct attack on Valve and Steam. And at this point I think we can all agree that Microsoft needs Steam more than Valve needs Windows.

Right, they clearly don't believe it has been worth the effort in the past. At a certain point I've always worried that they might.
