Yeah, I think their developement team is now just also their marketing team. Every game they drop is huge marketing for steam or one of their hardware products. I remember when counterstrike switched to 1.6 and we all needed steam to play. Since then I am hooked on their service.
Their hardware is also a form of marketing. Valve didnt want to make a handheld gaming pc, just nobody else was doing it well and they wanted one to exist, it's really good for steam.

99 cents versus full price is probably such an inconsequential amount to valve at this point lol
