Dont use one, happy with WoW. Dont really need anything else to get addicted to :)
I use Steam for all of my computer games. It helps to have forums and stuff like that in case of issues, along with saving storage space since I won't have to keep all those boxes and/or discs somewhere. Plus, when I'm using Steam a disc can't get scratched or broken, as is the case with most of the games I buy. I also use Steam because there is a friends list and group system, and this helps when planning to play with buddies. Another reason I have for using Steam is that I can get plenty of discounts, sales, combination packages, etc. and I don't have to leave my house to buy the game I want. Steam is also useful because I can install addons and mods to my games easily with the Steam Workshop functionality. Lastly, I can install games on other computers easily, unlike when I (usually) forget games at my home. I hope the feedback helps!

I only use steam.
I have Steam installed but I rarely use it. It came with a game I bought a while back (Fallout: New Vegas).
I use steam because most of the games are free but mostly I play WoW
I use Steam for a few games because of how easy it is to manage, other than that though just WoW, SC2 and D3.
I actually use Steam quite a bit. It's very user friendly and tends to have a good selection of games, I find. I like that I can delete them and redownload them with little hassle, and if you watch for the sales you can get games -quite a bit- cheaper than anywhere else that I know of.Another nice feature of Steam is that you can run other games through it if you have friends you like to talk to through the program, and not have to worry about tabbing out to reply due to the game overlay. Said overlay also allows you to take screenshots and upload them for your friends to see. All in all it's a rather nice program, in my opinion.That being said, I haven't really tried any others extensively.
I use Steam for DotA 2 and Origin for Battlefield 3 but not too often as I don't like Origin.
I do have "Steam" and "Origin" installed but im currently not using them. I mostly play WoW atm, i have a few games on Steam and it is by far my favorite platform due to how the friend client works. I am only using Origin to play BF3 and i really do hate that platform because it runs the game through websites and it takes sooo damn long to load up maps and games.I like the idea of how it works, and i like the way i can manage my games on a platform.
I use xbox live some, but not Stream. I only used steam twice to play Portal 2 and Skyrim, which I haven't played on my pc in almost a year. I tend to enjoy consoling gaming more than pc gaming (except WoW) and xbox live feels less likely to get a virus or trojan as compared to a PC with an active browser. That's just how I feel, which is probably cause I grew up playing consoles :P
I use Steam and Origin, because I think its safer, easier to manage my downloads and games, and we can still interact with other users, like in a social network =]
I use Steam because it's incredibly useful, easy and quick. I also find it extremely handy to friend people that I also play with on WoW as well as socialise with on forums, so I can talk to them even if they don't appear to be available or online (it's pretty much my facebook).
No, but I probably would if I had a better computer.
nope...only play WoW and sometimes diablo 3
I used Steam once bc I had to either to take advantage of a free offer or bc it was the only way for me to access content for Civ. Probably both. WoW is the only game I play on my computer now.
