Valve has announced that they will be allowing content creators to charge for workshop mods:

The Steam Workshop has always been a great place for sharing mods, maps, and all kinds of items that you’ve created. Now it's also a great place for selling those creations. With a new, streamlined process for listing and selling your creations, the Steam Workshop now supports buying mods directly from the Workshop, to be immediately usable in game. Discover the best new mods for your game and enable the creators to continue making new items and experiences.

While this seems a great way to incentivize the creation of more and better mods, of course not all gamers are happy about it. [venturebeat.com - Warning: lots of javascript]

    That analogy is so weak it just collapsed under its own weight. I am not going to discuss it.

    You do realise that finding any ol' analogy that vaguely fits is not proof of anything, right?

    Analogies are supposed to make EXPLAINING something complex easier - not become the laughable pretence of proof.

    Its like a car that you buy because it looks like it would go real fast and then you find during the first rain shower its made of cardboard.

    Cardboard, meet rain..
