This could be the case, or could not be. They shared a post on Reddit 19 hours ago from their official account, and I thought it might be nice to share that here, at least to spark some discussion.
They simply shared a post titled:
Shall we? 📦💿

Gog already are no drm and you could write it to a disc if you really wanted to. It’s been like that for a very long time. Given you would be writing a data disc you can even put multiple games on a single DVD in some cases.
Their windows installers are usually split at 4GB - huh, guess what fits nicely on a 4.7GB DVD…

They could sell decent USB optical drives to go with them
Is there such a thing?
I’ve had a few crappy ones, they’re basically e-waste after a few uses or trips. So I revert to a full size internal sata one or the same but in a 5.1/4" external caddy (powered).
No idea, haven’t used optical media in like 2 decades.
oh right, cool. i’ll stick to my chunky chunks then.

Why am I the only one that has a BD-R drive?
There are dozens of us! Dozens!!
You can buy am external DVD burner for like 25 bucks these days, but blue ray is still over a hundred.
It wasn’t until recently. They used to be considerably cheaper.
Sorry. A blue ray BURNER is pretty expensive. A drive is cheap
That’s not why those drives are expensive. They’re expensive because they can run cfw to enable ripping of UHD and now xbox and nintendo discs.
Pretty sure I bought my Blu-ray burners for like $40 long ago
I have one. I rarely use it but I still do occasionally. I’m due a BR dump in the near future actually
