I've found this on Steam Forums.

Not entirely sure why they're doing this, at first I thought this was a nice way to give people the chance to get games they missed out on, but the prices being what they are will surely turn down many people. I mean they have Braid is 20 dollars? On Steam it's only 10, same with World of Goo (humble sells for 20, Steam for 10). I suppose they're trying to appeal to those interested in a DRM free version of the game but are people really interested in paying double the price to get the installer of a game rather than the Steam version? I'll keep an eye out and see what happens with these, thank you for the heads up.

Agreed, I looked at the prices and was just a bit put off.

Pretty cool, I guess, if you like DRM free games.

They've had this system for quite a while now. I used it to purchase English Country Tune (http://englishcountrytune.com/) and it works just like a bundle. You give them the money, they send you a download link that contains the game you purchased. If you lose your key, the key resender at the Humble Indie Bundle website will work with store purchases too.

Maybe they're going to make a store dedicated to DRM-Free crossplatform indie games for a side-source of money.

With prices like that - I would be surprised if many people.. or anyone for that matter would buy the games from their store as opposed to somewhere like Steam.

Prices are kinda weird, but Cortex Command, for example, is 2 times cheaper. I guess they'll just put discounts on some games after annouce of the store.
