That's not true at all, I have a large collection of games dating from around 1990 to present on my shelves. Assuming I can find the disks (most of them are in the wrong boxes) I can re-install any of them and play right now (ok I might have to install dosbox for some of them not to mention find a floppy drive).

That's only true currently for games that are only playable via a single central online service (e.g WoW etc) and that's sort of dictated by the game format itself.

What I mean is a world where all games are video streamed to you even if they are single player only.

Sorry but you are just being silly now. We are talking about the current and future.

You know times change.

Anyway. I made my point already.

Your point as I understand it is that you would find it preferable for content creators not to distribute at all rather than distribute with copyright?
