Yes, but up until now it's been (very) rare. At least for games.

I fear that companies will view a change like this as a door opening wider to remove digital content as they please. Or perhaps worse, only offer strictly time-limited access with a "well, you're getting exactly what you asked for" view of it.



It's not rare at all. It happens all the time, everywhere. There are hundreds of games nobody can play anymore because servers got shutdown.
