I'm a bit panicked - I've just caught on to the news that FFG 40k RPG's (like Rogue Trader etc) are not only no longer supported/won't be updated, but are no longer being *sold*. GAH.
I absolutely loved reading through these even if I never play the majority with anyone. But I don't even see them on drivethroughrpg anymore!
Does anyone know any way I can at least get the .pdf's of these absolutely incredible creations?

Which ones are you looking for?

H.B.M.C.- The end hath come! From now on armies will only consist of Astorath, Land Speeder Storms and Soul Grinders!
War Kitten- Vanden, you just taunted the Dank Lord Ezra. Prepare for seven years of fighting reality...
koooaei- Emperor: I envy your nipplehorns. <Magnus goes red. Permanently>
Neronoxx- If our Dreadnought doesn't have sick scuplted abs, we riot.
Frazzled- I don't generally call anyone by a term other than "sir" "maam" "youn g lady" "young man" or " HEY  bag!"
Ruin- It's official, we've ran out of things to talk about on Dakka. Close the site. We're done.
mrhappyface- "They're more what you'd call guidlines than actual rules" - Captain Roboute Barbosa
Steve steveson- To be clear, I'd sell you all out for a bottle of scotch and a mid priced hooker.

Sadly, when a company loses a license, that usually means they can no longer sell products for it, even PDFs.
When FFG lost the license, they would have had to remove their products from sites like DrivethruRPG and the like. People that had previously bought them should still be able to download them (I think), but they can't sell them anymore and there wont be any store links.
At this point it is either hunting down hardcopies or donning an eyepatch and sayin' "shiver me timbers".

Friggin all of them :( All the 40k RPG books - especially the Rogue Trader expansions (the only one I ever actually got to playing). I wouldn't even mind the Warhammer fantasy ones if I broaden my perspective some day. But I have long held hopes of playing these with friends (and at least continuing my Rogue Trader game). Really beside myself that it's come to this, even for the pdf's (also ty Ronin for that.. :( ).

Yeah and I would never want to go to shady sites for it but have to wonder, what if a friend or someone just gave them to you at this point? Since they're no longer being sold no company would care, right?

Is it still against copy rights if they are no longer sold? If not I will provide links here.
Edit: missed Blax's reply above.

Yes because it still has a copyright, the license just isn't under FFG anymore (because to my understanding it has reverted back to GW)
