Call it what you will, it's very valuable. Of course, if I have a right to play the game because I bought it, and lose the CD key, I've now technically lost that right.

> Depends on the game.

I'm sorry, but the majority of games you can't. Yes, their are exceptions. Should I preface everything I said with a paragraph of legalese explaining that their are exceptions.

> unless you lose your Steam password that is.

That's not correct. You have to lose your steam password and choose not to recover it, which is much easier then if you lose your CD Keys.

What was the point of your response?

I'll just call it what it is.

Of course it is.

Or be unable to, which is pretty easy

That not only those are not rights, they're definitely not steam-exclusive either.

No, it's not. I've lost my password before. I've been able to recover/change it, and reinstall my games.

Then you failed to make your second point.

And just because you have been able to recover your password you cannot fathom that it might be unrecoverable?

It's very simple: lose access to contact email address, be fucked.
