Other intriguing tidbits from the report include a candid assessment of Demigod's launch struggles (where the lauded online play was broken for most players for the first three weeks the game was out), details of the company's efforts to make its popular desktop software relevant to Windows 7, and a minor update on Elemental's development. Stardock estimates that "for the calendar year 2009, digital distribution will represent approximately 25% of the revenue for a typical PC game publisher." Stardock pegs its own Impulse service in second place at 10%, with the remaining 20% belonging to various independent players like GamersGate, Direct2Drive, and others.
According to Stardock's 2009 Customer Report, the developer/publisher estimates that Valve's Steam service accounts for roughly 70% of PC digital games purchases.
