Right now digital stores are still relatively young, so we haven't seen it yet, but they are already being shut down systematically. 

Steam and Xbox live are both nearly a quarter-century old. 

And while Xbox is probably going to soft-exit the hardware business, their service is becoming hardware-agnostic. 

It is easier to play a Steam game purchased in 2004 today, than it is to play many physical disc games released then.
