Grass fed and finished beef has an absolutely superior texture and flavor to that of grain fed.
Yes grass fed is leaner, but that doesn't mean there isn't any fat. There is still plenty of it. Grain fed has way too much, which makes the meat mushy and bland in comparison to grass fed.
It's like the difference between a perfectly prepared porterhouse and a filet mignon that was overcooked and not seasoned at all.
Yes, there will be more texture in the grass fed, you wont be able to cut it with a fork, it wont fall apart in your mouth without chewing.....but it will also taste like beef, not like vaguely beef flavored chicken breast.

Growing up all the beef we ate is what we raised and it was all grass raised and finished. And it was very good.

If you want a lean steak without marbling, don't pay extra for a ribeye.

What? The marbling is good, it is just healthier. There's no one in the world who orders a steak and just eats the fatty trimming, so I am thinking it isn't the only good part. Like loki said, its mostly the texture. The fattier peices are more moist because grease is dripping through them more as they are cooking, certainly giving them a little more flavor, but it doesn't lose much.
"Eww, you are just throwing that grease away? Dump it back on the steak!!"

You're right, i dont know much about marbling, because all i really know is that when i see it on a cut of meat, i choose a different, leaner cut because i hate fat.
