I download both windows and linux offline installers when I buy games at gog.com, it's one of the reasons I buy there.

I can understand that having your own copy is nice, especially if the service is closed for some reason.
I just don't bother doing that anymore, I prefer browsing my library on GOG instead of a file-manager.
