    It is now the moment for Valve to announce that they have come up with a way to let you sell/exchange games between users on Steam. They do this and they eat the whole market.

      They will never do this, but we can dream.

      If valve released a “exchange program” that allows you to trade digital licenses, even for a fee, it would be revolutionary.

      …don’t…don’t they already have this feature? Steam Family allows you to share libraries of games with your “family members”.

      And unlike Nintendo with their Virtual Game Card two-week limit, you can share Steam games forever AFAIK.

        Yeah, but I meant something like actually trading. Not just sharing in the family group. Imagine I have a game I’ve completed, I don’t want it anymore and you want to play it. We’re not in the same family group, so I offer you to trade it for a game of your library, or maybe we make a deal and you pay me some money for it so you are in a way, purchasing it second-hand from me.
