Your point on Steam is good but the same holds for GOG.
They could be acquired or go under just as well and I doubt that most people are keeping backups of all the installers.
- Larrikin 2y agoI view the installers the same as the discs or cartridges. They are yours and it's your responsibility to keep up with them if you want to play them in the future. But unlike a disc or cartridge you can have it backed up in multiple places, more similar to family photos.
