You buy games, they're registered to your account forever, and you can download them on any computer as long as you're using your account.

My internet is slow as fuck, though, so it's going to take a week of solid downloading to actually get every game I bought. That and Steam is a little fucking buggy piece of shit that crashes at least twice daily and won't listen to me when I tell it to pause a download.

Like, I'll tell it to stop, right, so I can play some TF2. Then, when I connect to a server, my ping jumps to 400. I alt tab to catch Steam trying to quickly pause the download again. I resume the download, pause it and make sure it stays that way, go back to the game, and after the server I'm on switches maps the little bastard will start downloading again.

It's like when you tell a child to stay out of the fucking cookie jar, leave them alone for 5 minutes, then coming back to catch them stealing cookies. You beat them, tell them to stay the fuck out of the cookie jar, and then come back in another five minutes to find the little shits stealing more fucking cookies.

The weird thing is that it absolutely refuses to download when I'm playing an offline game that's still a Steam app. Fucking hate Steam; if these were all just deals I could use for normal retail copies of games, I'd go to a store and buy them.
