Strongly disagree, for Steam in particular. I played a lot of computer games in high school and early college, then stopped for about 7 years. When I finally bought a new computer, I somehow remembered my old Steam password and was thrilled to find that all the old games were still on my account, ready to download. In comparison, I had long lost any physical copies of games I had purchased as a youth.

As a bonus, I get the “bragging rights” of having nearly the oldest possible steam account (it can now vote).

What do you mean by "it can now vote" ? (honest curiousity)
They mean it is older than 18 years. It can't vote.
It can vote on the helpfulness of reviews.
