Discussions in the past about not being able to access digital gaming content that users had paid for...

I have a recollection of some long threads about some companies discontinuing gaming content and members of Lemmy having strong feelings and evidence about all this. I have been trying to search these older threads up but I can't find them. Does anyone remember these conversations? What companies were involved? Games? How much data was basically disappeared?

Thank you! So many people do not realize that this is coming to everyone who invests in digital games like this.

Not all digital games. If they're DRM free, and if the multiplayer allows for LAN, direct IP connections, private servers, etc; then they're built to last, arguably better so than physical media.

Digital media of any sort, really.
