minus-squareTrismegistusMx@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·10 months agoActually you can legally download torrents of games that you already own.

minus-squareTrismegistusMx@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·10 months agoPretty sure it’s a federal determination. You can’t be pirating if you have the rights to the property.

minus-squareQualanqui@lemmy.nzlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·10 months agoSteam used to allow you to convert certain physical games to digital if you put the CD key into Steam’s “Add a Non-Steam Game” menu. It wasn’t all games but quite a few, so if you’re sitting on a big physical library this is a legitimate option.
