Greenlight is a scheme made by Value for Steam. The idea of Greenlight is to have the gaming community help to pick some of the new games that will be released on steam. Developers are supposed to be post information, screenshot or video for their game. After getting enough support from the community the game starts to get distribution. There is a submission fee which stops joke submissions which is good to see since it keeps the space free for developers.
If i decide to create a game with some friends this will most likely be the way i would distribute it if i got the support from the steam community the main drawback i can see in this method is if you don't get the support you will be just sat their with your game or elements of the game and will have no way of getting it out to the public.
