WON Shutdown Soon
by Maarten Goldstein, Jul 15, 2004 11:20pm PDTWe received an email from Valve, announcing that WON authentication servers will be shut down soon. After this operation is done (should be by July 31), you can no longer use of the online features of non-Steam Valve products, such as Counter-Strike 1.5. People who haven't already done so are encouraged to download Steam so they can continue to play.

Hearing all those horror stories of Steam sitting there for days trying to download stuff isn't gonna make me want to install it.
Why can't they just keep WON alive, it's not having a server or two to validate clients is a big drain on their resources.
