Agreed Tumbler.
Browsing GOG.com the other day was reminiscent of trips to Eggheard Software and Software Etc in the 1990s. I'm so glad a new generation of gamers can play classics like Fallout 1 & 2, Gothic II, Capitalism, and Freespace at affordable prices sans DRM. Good games stand the test of time. Hell, I could spend the next 3 years playing nothing but sub-$10 from GOG and be totally happy.
Digital distribution is slowly changing everything. Like you said, games will no longer have finite lifespans. Valve updates its games for free because it keeps them "alive" years after release. Then people can buy them over Steam without worrying about whether or not a retailer will have it in stock.
Why pay $50 for a new game when I can buy 5 great games from GOG for the same price?
Edit: Meant Freespace not Freelancer
