So apparently the majority of licensed music from GTA 4's ingame radio stations will be removed soon because the licenses have expired. Of course pirates now have the superior version because this won't happen to their copies. In the reddit thread about the topic, it did bring up the discussion of how DRM-free games would be less affected by this issue because even if an updated installer was made that had the songs removed, so long as you had made a backup of an older installer, you'd be unaffected and could just reinstall using this superior version (not applicable to GTA 4 though, just a hypothetical).
This would surely be OK right? I mean you did buy the game, you did download it from the official download source, so no worries?

You do not own anythhing but a license to use with or without DRM.
Your license may still get revoked, it is just as likely as it is with DRM.
For a DRM-free game, after a license revoke, you can continue playing it since you may launch the game still, but that is literally piracy.
