I gotta admit, I got like 19 1 dollar games just by trading Trading Cards to people during the arms race, so a lot of this makes sense. If you realize that being one of 30 people getting 3 games is unlikely - while a lot of people buying those cards to craft badges instead of play for them is likely, you get a situation where the rational move is to acquire and sell cards, not try to win. When that happens, collapse is inevitable.
