That sucks and all, but to be fair this is entirely on you. They sold you a DRM-Free file and you chose to not actually use it and to rely on their servers which you have no control over. This isn't a "DRM Free" issue.

Personal ownership means you take personal responsibility for it.

    Every day that passes I think more and more that I should have a local backup copy of my whole GOG games collection.

    I have a reminder pop every few months to download the newest games that I bought from GoG. I've found it easier to download one or two, rather than a giant batch.

    It fits the exact thing the comic shows. The comic said DRM free is the solution. I am showing that it is not immune to the same issues that DRM content has.

    you chose to not actually use it

    my hard drive broke. I had it downloaded and went to go redownload it
    Also they advertise the app as streaming.

    This isn't a "DRM Free" issue.

    that's what I was pointing out, that BandCamp has the same issues.

    Overall I agree though, it is kinda on me to not have my download backed up.
