And it also depends on where you live. People in the US and western Europe have generally nothing to worry regarding availability. But I remember quite well the time when my country was not yet a member of EU and many digital goods that were freely available in the US and western Europe were unavailable here. Who knows, such a time might come again in the future. So I buy everything I might be interested in while I can, because I'm not completely sure I would be able to buy them years later.
