OK, as someone who thought P.T. was this highly over-rated terribly designed, obtuse mess…
Well, I won’t defend my opinion, everyone else here is likely to adore the demo/be a silent hills fan. I will address the bigger issue then, just to give a counter point from a non-fan of the content.

It’s just a teaser, for a game that will never exist. The elements it is advertising are at odds with, or are soon to be fully divorced from the company that controls the software..it would only cost them money/bad P.R. to leave up.
Its a thing that people are telling other people you can’t have. The internet does not like that. There are people, groups, entire communities that will work to release this game to the public. Because they can, because they are angry at the company, because they genuinely believe P.T. to have merit/be worth leaving for others to experience.
Any talk of “OMG physical media only! Proof digital games are gonna poof!” is silly. A preview of something that no longer even exists is so far removed from a fully developed game someone paid money for. Will, one day, someone somewhere sell a AAA title, and then remove that from markets like P.T. has been, no d/l option and etc? Yes…

And that will be the catalyst for the laws in multiple countries to be changed to laugh at the attempts to make selling video games a ‘service” or something that E.A. or the like has some right to revoke from legitimate customers. Just because its in their T.O.S. doesn’t mean its got any real chance of surviving a real legal fight, which is something that the removal of an actual game from steam say (preventing re-downloads from people who bought it) would cause.
The loss of P.T. is a thing I am sad to see happen for people who liked/appreciated it. But it feels as much a “We already got hit by you telling us the thing it was teasing is never gonna happen, we are now super angry to have salt rubbed into that wound” as anything.
Just my two cents though, as again, someone who thought the thing had way less value then most.
