Looking at you Steam
I have 15 years of rented video games
We don’t fully know what would happen if Steam decided to turn evil. But, so far they’ve been pretty reluctant to remove people’s purchases. Even when something is no longer available for sale on Steam, if it’s in your library you get to keep playing it. The bigger issue is when servers for old games go offline. Especially annoying when it’s not multiplayer games, but DRM-type servers for single-player games.

Still pissed I can’t play Mercenaries 2 anymore since I don’t have the correct console to play offline, since playing online freezes the game when it attempts to connect to servers.
I tried all the workarounds on the 360, too. None of them worked so I just resigned to disconnecting my Xbox whenever I wanted to play. Which wouldn’t be a problem now, but back then it was the worst to have to get up and unplug something and be unable to talk to my friends while I play.
