Never heard of gog.com before (not much of a gamer anymore these days) but it looks really cool! I wonder, though, how exactly do they handle the copyright and licensing topic? Do they negotiate terms separately with every copyright holder? Do they get access to the source code in order to preserve the games and make them fully offline-compatible?

Sometimes, sometimes their role is just packaging the game with a dosbox config too, or a developer provided drm free build
- WorldMaker 9mo agoSome games get packaged with other emulators beyond dosbox as well. GOG includes and configures ScummVM for some applicable games, for instance.
