Not just Valve. Many of the best videogame studios in the world are run in remarkably democratic, open-source fashion: Sony's Naughty Dog, Media Molecule and Santa Monica Studio, Konami's Metal Gear Solid, etc. It's a combination of (1) dissident artists who respect open source principles, (2) sales are determined by fans, not by advertising or networks, and (3) active and cerebral fan communities pushing back against corporate greed.
