    You can always play the version shipped with the disk with the game unplugged from the internet.

    On PC, you’d have to pirate if a game is taken down.

      On PC, you could pirate, but you could also buy DRM free games from GOG.com and keep a copy locally backed up.

      It’s also worth noting that optical media will delaminate over time, rendering them unusable.
