Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I prefer physical units, but.. I'm actually worried about my games. Like ok, I have many games I never put in drive, because I have no time to play, but.. Will it mean I won't be able to install them if disc has only key to online storage? There's so many problems with current devices and releases I can't even name them all
