Steam is exceptionally good at this though as I don't know of a single game that has been removed permanently ever. They have delisted and stopped selling a bunch, sure, but you can still download and play them. Even those that simply don't work anymore as the servers are dead - by no fault of Valve.

Sure. I hope I didn't come across as claiming that I've lost any games I licensed through Steam. Just that it's a possibility.
