Valve has said that digital distributors who boycott PC games because they ship with Steamworks services are missing out on potentially lucrative sales.

Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz, business development director Jason Holtman was addressing concerns by online sellers such as IGN's Direct2Drive, Impulse and Gamersgate who decided against selling Activision's Modern Warfare 2 because the Steamworks tools also act as a storefront for sales through Steam.
