The community - guides, discussion boards, chats, achievements, badges, records etc. - is the obvious thing.
The subtler things are auto-updates and games recommended to you based on what you buy and play. Not to mention the amazing sales.
Multiplayer is huge on Steam.
Mod workshops are amazing - you just select what mods you want and Steam auto-installs them.
Then there's the fact that you can log into Steam from anywhere and download and game. You get two installs with OOTP and a buttload with Steam.
If you're old-fashioned, conservative, anti-social or stationary, then you likely won't be able to see the point of Steam. But 75 million Steam members around the world do see the point, and I am one of them.

According to OOTP itself, OOTP MLB play (modern and historical) outnumbers OOTP fictional play three to one.
Five thousand thanks for a non-modder? I never thought I'd see the day. Thank you for your support.
