I'm not worried about Steam going under at all, their services are the best out there and they have basically created the all in one service for gamers.
Purchasing/Store Front w/ links to forums, developer homepages, manual and demos etc.
Auto updates
Cloud Syncing
Community/Profiles
Acheivements
Screenshots
Recommending Games
etc etc etc etc
The only thing in the back of my mind would be if Gabe sold Steam to say Microsoft to integrate it into Windows 9 or whatever. I doubt they go public with an IPO because they have absolutely no reason to and Gabe loses his power.
I think they are on the right page with Steam. They are tying everything together nicely and Valves main focus is only on Steam which should be obvious and as much as I want to see Half Life 3 I want to make sure Steam is their #1 priority because of the awesome service it is.
They are keeping Indie alive and their Steam Sales are awesome.
