Valve probably has enough leverage to hold it off for a while, but rightholders seem to be trying to close that loophole. A store I previously bought FLACs from emailed me this week that a new Terms of Service comes into force on October 1 where the change is the service can remove downloads when the rightholder removes the music from sale and requests downloads to be removed as well. A few hours later I got a notification that a number of albums in purchase history will be removed from my available downloads on October 1st.

- terinjokes 2y agoThis is true, and certainly easier than games. Don't worry, I download the FLACs and archive them immediately after purchase anyways. The streaming service is Qobuz.
