Not even Steam works like that.

Stay offline for 30 days (iirc) and try to play the games you paid for.

Well, Steam is a DRMed game lending platform; content is only stored off-line because there's no practical way for them to do otherwise. If they could get away with streaming games from their servers, they'd happily do it.
There are many things one could blame Steam for, but AFAIK this limitation has been removed years ago.
