If Steam was just to verify legitimate installation I would be okay with that.
I suspect they track all purchases, usage, and then sell this information as customer profiles for advertisement.
That goes well beyond the stated goals.

Steam will let you play offline. Ubisoft on the other hand, even a single player game needs internet access all the time.
X-Plane you can get as a digital download or on disk, just like MS.
I will have to grab Flightgear and check it out. How is the support for addon aircraft?
