By the time Steam goes out of business, several things might have happened:

* I'll have stopped gaming

* Most games need emulating because they won't run on our hardware in the future

* The games are dirt cheap to buy on GOG

* Someone will release a pirated collection most of them

So I'm not too worried about my personal Steam collection. Preservation, that's a different story...




Steam has also promised that they have emergency de-DRM code they can execute if the company ever goes bust.
