tfishell: My view is you can basically do whatever want with your games, besides piracy of course ...

Gersen: I don't see the issue as long as you don't distribute said games (but then again I am not a lawyer) the only thing that could be against the law would be if you had to crack a DRM to do so (because of the DMCA) but given that the game is DRM free it's not even the case. Recent Gog installers are just renamed RAR files (the bin files) so you don't even need Innoextract.
That's really interesting, I had no idea!

There are still games with RAR installers, but those haven't been updated in quite a while, probably more than a year. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games, for example, have RAR installers, and last time I checked, Shadow of Chernobyl was still password protected, but it's the only one.
