Sergey Galyonkin's Steam Spy, which keeps an eye on all sorts of Steam stats, comes out with fascinating titbits, like how refunds might not have hurt Arkham Knight that much, or that the average discount in this year's winter sale is lower than it was last time. Or, as the latest analysis tells it, that the paid game market on Steam was worth $3.5 billion last year.
Steam Spy estimates ownership of games—the figures don't come direct from developers—and it can't distinguish games bought elsewhere and activated on Steam from those bought via the Steam store. There's clear margin for error, but what's a hundred million dollars between friends?
