I do not use any digital download services, but I may in the future. Unless you count Curse Client. I suppose that counts?

No, I do not use these services. I prefer to choose myself what and when download, for games and everything else.
I use Steam only because it has one of the few games I play (Civ V). No other game that I really love involves a similar service so I don't use any others.
I used to use Steam quite often but now I mainly play WoW.
Not unless downloading games on my phone counts. :)
I use Steam solely for deals on games I'm interested in
I use steam for some games that I know I'll never play because WoW is better than them.
Yes, I use them.Often - SteamOccasionally - OriginI use them because they are a library for my games, offer a unified update/download platform, and also have discount storefronts and chat integrated into the interface. If they had zero impact on game performance and overlays worked consistently, I think I would even use Steam to boot WoW.
I use Steam, a lot... a LOT. I generally run WoW though there as a non-Steam game so I have access to the overlay and friends list. I used it mostly for the convenience, having most of my games in one place is easier than dealing with tons of different dvds or publisher download/patch sites. Plus all the sales they run are pretty nice too. Finally, while I much prefer DRM-free games (I personally don't think it works and is more a hindrance to the legit buyers than the pirates), the Steam form of DRM is the best of the worst in my opinion.The only other one I use is uPlay, and that's only because I need it to play Trials Evolution. But I much prefer Steam to it - better UI, better sales, more games (since it's just Ubi Soft games), more/better achievements, etc.
The only non-console based download service I use is Steam. It's very convenient to find the purchases, I can Greenlight games that otherwise wouldn't have made it onto the site, and they have blasting sales during summer and winter. It may not be perfect, but it's the closest so far.
I do use steam as there are games that i wanted to play that i simply couldn't otherwise. It's much cheaper and easier to play a game on steam on my computer than to buy a new counsel and the game in my opinion.
Yes, Steam and GoG. both because i dont have to worry about owning physical copies of my games and can save my game play files to my computer and play most of the games offline (if the game normally allows it). Also i find that when steam and gog have sales the prices for games can become more than reasonable, they can be actually affordable. Gog has many games no longer in circulation, and steam has some as well. so i can get a lot of older games and when steam and gog install them they are usually already compatible with my OS. (knights of the old republic 1 and 2 being two exceptions)
I use Steam because of the sales they have on games, and I've used Desura in the past because of some game bundle codes (Humble Bundle, etc.) that had some games that were Desura-exclusive.
Steam is really usefull to manage games and has a really great ease of use!
I use Steam because it has a bunch of my favorite games, and have thought of buying more. I use Origin to play Spore, but that's about all I use it for.
I used steam along time ago but don't anymore. The only digital downloads I use now are Blizzards games (SCII, WoW and Diablo) and apps I get from iTunes.Pick me, I'll raise him right. I need a fire pet for my battles!
no i don't :/
