Steamworks DRM is not a requirement though.
Comment on DVDs are dying right as streaming has made them appealing again

I know, I modified it to make more sense for video.

Yeah I don’t think DRM-free is really a requirement for most people.

So then we have iTunes. The only one it does not cover is the permanent ownership. Companies have yanked stuff from iTunes libraries before.

See also us.7digital.com; there are a number of places you can buy and download CD-quality music files. I believe iTunes actually lets you download music you buy as normal audio files as well.

ITunes sells videos as well, which I believe they were referring to.

That’s why you download it. Luckily iTunes m4a files are high quality and unlocked so I can instantly play them in anything, even my Synology apps.
Video isn’t the same though. That’s all still encrypted.
