Steam NOT Listed As A Digital Distributor, Players Upset

As many of you may or may not know, Battlefield 3 will NOT be released on Steam as of this moment. Instead, players must use the confirmed distributors: EA's Origin, GamersGate, Direct2Drive, and many other distributors EA has confirmed.

What is surprising is the response received from this news. Players are refusing to purchase Battlefield 3 for the PC if the game is not released on Steam.

Will you be purchasing Battlefield 3 despite not having the reliability and security of Steam?

Do you think EA will give in and list Steam as a Digital Distributor? I hope so.
