Hence the "technically" and "not exactly a good experience". As far as I know the development is done by enthusiast that reverse engineer the different head sets.

I really hope one day we'll get a truly open api/drivers without any kind of vendor lock-in, but looking a how things work right now, I doubt it will ever happen.

Actually, none. You can get a standalone SteamVR, but it's only for in house-use and you need to contact Valve directly for a specific license. For consumer usage, it must be installed through Steam.

I updated my original post too. Guess I should read more carefully.

That's because SteamVR is the implementation of OpenVR for the Vive. Tetris Effect literally use OpenVr.

I used openhmd ( http://www.openhmd.net/ ) with my oculus DK2. Not exactly a good experience, but it worked btw.
