Blizzard in particular had the "spawn" option, which was more like a demo that you got directly from a friend who had the game. It also allowed you to play multiplayer with just the original CD Key owner.

The Command & Conquer series by Westwood allowed something similar, since either disc (GDI/NOD or Allies/Soviets) contained the full installer and executable. This allowed both players in a head to head network game to run from the CDs. You could even both play half the game in single player and then swap discs, but I'm not sure that really was the intention.
