Stop worrying about it, worrying doesn't help. Live every day thankful for having GOG around, buying and playing games from them.
If and when GOG is no more, cherish the memory of GOG, remembering all the joyful days you had together. Compose a song for the memory of GOG and publish it on Youtube. Oh, about that: Shenmue doesn't seem to be DRM-free. At the moment it seems quite easy to crack, though.
Last but not least, Steam will cease to exist as well, when Windows Store has taken over the whole Windows gaming digital business. That is why Valve has been looking for promoting Linux gaming, as a plan B if and when Windows Store makes Steam (and GOG, and Origin, and UPlay...) irrelevant. Origin and UPlay seem to think though that in the future all their games will be streamed so there is no need for digital download services/stores (like Steam or GOG) anymore, at least for their games. And that their streamed games would be platform-independent, maybe playing them through any browser or on your Smart-TV.
There's the future for you, without Steam.
