we would never embrace piracy addons, or addons that contain some tracking like some other repos have done.
also we are with to few to become owners and maintain everything.
it's up to the community to maintain them, not us.

j2048b, don't take this the wrong way, but I'm having a heck of a time trying to figure out what your sentences are saying. Are you writing all of your posts on your phone or something?

Don't forget you run the risk of alienating the user base with the attempt to control and over-monetize XBMC.

I want it to be accepted and absorbed by Valve. XBMC and Valve seem to have very similar principles, even if Valve is a company based on monetary gain, they are still about welcoming people into the ecosystem for free and providing the best end-user experience possible.
Heck you can even get games for free as it stands now with the trading card system. I have a friend who just leaves his games on all day, sells the cards he gets and buys games with the Steam Cash. (Though that's beside the main point, it does further my point that they are primarily focused on the user experience. )
In the end I want a version of SteamOS with a GUI that is largely built on XBMC's base code. Combining the XBMC community with the Steam Workshop = splooge on my monitor.
Oh, and 3D holograms. Because, holograms.
