Yes that is true - although many games on Steam can play offline so because I download the game, I own it in that fashion. They can't take that away.
But compare with GOG then. They sell games, you download them with no DRM so you own the download essentially.
Yeah GOG is a better ownership model. Steam is not ownership
This is the model digital media should take, frankly. Anything less may as well be misleading marketing, as far as I'm concerned.
