This is why PC gaming is more superior to home gaming consoles that are riddled with DRM. At least you own digital copies of games that you buy on there.

Only true on DRM free marketplaces. Nearly only GOG. Not Steam - you are very much at the mercy of their TOS, it's just a better TOS. But we shouldn't rely on merciful kings.
