Hopefully in 10-20 years when these titles that are no longer on sale and not making money that it would force the providers to delete the digital file from the servers, that their would be laws to help insure ones purchase by allowing the person to download the digital file themselves by a certain date.

This is actually a really good point. I've watched the wild west of the Internet from the Arpanet days and have watched it slowly tame due to new laws in place. I can see my worries lessening about vaporware movies with laws in place to keep the studios and distributors from being tyrannical.
