Interesting: Steam new survey doesn't list Origin in programs

If you have done the Steam survey or if not: http://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey

You can notice that Steam doesn't count Origin in the list of programs installed. But it does count the % of PC's that have EA download manager installed.

I found this quite interesting.

EA Download Manager is the name of the program you download Origin games with. That's why its listed as such.

Yes, but you still install Origin as a program on its own, and you use it every day if you play games on it. Should't it be listed as such ?

Yes, Origin only exists since June 2011, before it was EA Download Manager.
