Treewhisperer: Anybody who managed to download the demo who would be willing to upload the offline installer to a google drive or similar file hosting service? That somebody shall have the eternal gratitude not just from me but surely others' who missed out as well.
I'd try asking this guy. In the past he offered to help me get a demo that had been removed before I could add it to my account.

SCPM: I hadn't been keeping close track, but it looks like more movies were removed from sale? It's down to just 15 entries now.
I kind of want GOG to try their hand at DRM-free movies again, even if there is region-locking (assuming that backlash is what prevented releases of some mainstream movies here), but maybe that opportunity has sailed for whatever reason.

Disney's Jungle Book will be removed tomorrow:

Likely to be replaced by the Jungle Book/More Aladdin DLC that is already available on Steam:

I did a little research, and these are the movies removed on a date somewhere between November 10 and 22, 2021:

Angry Video Game Nerd: The Movie
Austin High
Burning Man: Beyond Black Rock
Mars
Motivational Growth
One Couch at a Time
Pixel Poetry Special Edition
Stream Dream
Super Game Jam - 5 Short Films & 5 Short Games
The Art of Playing (Free)
The Basement

They were all published by Devolver Digital, and I can't find much information about their movie division anymore, so maybe it closed, or their distribution rights have ceased. I kind of regret not picking them up when there was one of those super sales on their movies.

Quoting SCPM:
The Xuan-Yuan Sword VII 30th Anniversary Special Pack and Afterglow of Mohists free DLCs were removed, apparently the content was already included in the game so it was redundant.
Archived pages:
Xuan-Yuan Sword VII Outfit DLC– Afterglow of Mohists: https://archive.ph/62ZA9
Xuan-Yuan Sword VII - 30th Anniversary Special Pack: https://archive.ph/wGj0v

I'm not sure exactly when the DLCs were removed, but it must've happened some time in the past 4 days.

Industry Giant and Industry Giant 2 returned today. Well, I don't remember if 1 was previously here, but 2 certainly was. It's marked as owned for me still with the return.

Removal notice for reference: https://www.gog.com/forum/industry_giant_2/industry_giant_2_removal

Also, GOGDB only lists the second game, and still as not available (probably didn't synchronize today yet), so most likely the first game is indeed a newcomer.

The old "Industry Giant 2" is renamed to "Industry Giant 2: Classic", and owner of it get the new comer "Industry Giant 2" for free.
The old one use the pathname: industry_giant_2
The new one use the pathname: industry_giant_ii

I think they are like ultima_4 and ultima_iv, fallout_game and fallout_classic.
The same game with different installer and goodies.
