Can the file(s?) downloaded from Ubi be burned/backedup so as to preserve a copy in case of future hard drive failures?
If so, then I will be downloading as soon as I have an answer to this question.

I don't know about Ubi, but if you buy through Direct2Drive (see Neal's link), you can download the game as often as you want. I've downloaded some games over 1.5 years again after I purchased them. And yes, if you want to be really safe, you can burn the downloaded file to a dvd. |
Thanks for the reply. Perhaps I am a bit to pessimistic at times, but I don't want to assume that D2D will be around at some point in the future when my HDD craps out.
