I'd argue that the problem with non-physical releases is mainly conservation, and software pirates seem to have that covered for PC releases.

Now if you wanna buy a game, DRM free is of course preferable. I buy as much as I can from gog, because I don't want to blindly trust any corporation, regardless of their past record. After all, valve is set up in a way that gives them all the leverage.

Buying from GOG is also useful as you can keep the offline installers somewhere if you have the storage for it.
