Why do I need steam?

Hi all,
Got the bundle now

But there's a new question now...
First I installed both games en they are working without the steam keys....
So like explained on the site from Humble I installed the app Steam on my computer... and I registered the both keys!
I din't installed from Steam their library stuff for both games on my computer... because the games are working and my suspicion feelings for strange programs.
And Little Snitch was showing me a lot connections from the Steam app.
So why do I need Steam and what does it for the game and why does it need all these connections???
Kind regards,
EB

I did not get LOGI or LOGII through Steam, myself - so I can't answer this one.

Steam is like a huge BIG BROTHER all encompassing parasite in my view
I got another game ExtraTerrestrials from Steam
now every time I start my PC I have several minutes of Steam "verifying the installation" and during that time don't even try using email, a browser well basically anything at all
the really annoying thing is, if you start your PC 1 hour after that you'll see Steam "verifying the installation" all over again, Again don't even try using email, a browser etc just "GET USED TO IT"
I am now removing Steam and getting "ExtraTerrestrials" elsewhere, the Parasite Big Brother can go and jump

You can prevent Steam starting with your PC by de-activating "Run Steam when my Computer starts" in Steam settings.
Click "Steam" Menu -> Settings -> Interface -> uncheck the "Run Steam when my Computer starts" box -> click "OK" -> problem solved.
Now what is odd is your Steam Client starting to verifying a game installation by itself. There is no general setting in Steam Client to enable this behavior. So it's either a game-specific setting (check the properties for that game by right-cllicking it in your library) or you encountered something you should report to Steam support.
