Steam Workshop now allows for paid mods on the Skyrim store.
What are people's opinions on this?
Personally, I'm very against it for a variety of reasons:

Personally, I'm very against it for a variety of reasons:
- It gives modders a lot of unclear legal obligations. The steam license agreements are not a catch-all on this - EU consumer protection legislation will override them the moment a customer from the UK or Germany, or France, or any other EU country buys anything. Even if the modder is in the US.
- It commercialises an activity that most people (like me) consider a labour of love. I don't make my mod tools for other people to commercially exploit.
- How do you deal with the situation where two people make a similar mod? How can you prove one is not based on the other when one user starts charging for it?
