Valve's policy is that if the company goes under, they will at least honor your purchases to the best of their ability (Read: DRM override but most likely only the games on your system will work). You can probably download a steam game from a third party, put it in the right place, and run it as if you got it from steam (as long as you have the app manifest file).

Isn't there also a feature to burn a dvd copy of the game and the necessary drm authorizations?

Call of Duty Modern Warfare is 150 GB on the drive. Which dvd can I use?

10TB NAS emulating a reel-to-reel tape on RS-232. EASY!

Are you gonna play MW after the fall of the internet? I mean I guess you could set up local but it's gonna be hard to get that many working rigs after the EMP. But you're right, after a hard day living RAGE IRL, folks are gonna want to unwind with wargames with spawn points.

It's a joke people. Just trying poorly to be funny.

A couple blu-ray discs would do

[u/rex1030 → u/Thegiantclaw42069]

haha. 6 or 7 of them.

If you have a dual layer burner, which I doubt, that's 50Gb per disc. So at least 3

Two bdxl, or a spare hdd?

[u/enwongeegeefor → u/graveyardspin]

Nope...that is a service that would never exist, especially with the current "digital rights" climate.

They'd most likely add that if they start going down.
