"Well certainly with the Xbox 360, we had some challenges at the launch. Once we identified that we took control of it. We wanted to do it right by our customers. Our customers are very important to us." -Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb (10/2013). Note: RRoD was fixed with the Jasper-revision 3 years after the launch of 360

"People don't pay attention to a lot of the details."-Yusuf Mehdi explaining why Xbone DRM scheme would succeed

"Fortunately we have a product for people who aren't able to get some form of connectivity; it's called Xbox 360,”-Don Mattrick

"The region locking of the 3DS wasn't done for profits on games"-MDMAlliance

First, you should really post some content other then just a link inside a thread.

Secondly this guys has no idea what he's talking about.

He's playing off people's initial view of the DRM and is trying to roll with it.

The policy wasn't bad to begin with, it's benefits outweighed everything, but people chose to not look into it and just cried, much like this guy.

Isn't he the one that was crying at E3 a few years back because Microsoft made him put on a poncho and he started sweating profusely, that led it to him bitching about the whole event for a week? looks like the same guy.

Regardless gamers do forget, because they know how to move on, even (now this is my opinion) if the original policy was a better policy.  It was to be a REAL STEAM like answer for home consoles.

I'm pretty upset we didn't get to hear more about the pros of what MS was offering, and instead just heard the bashing.

I'm upset at us.

Benefits? There were no benefits, just a few bones that were thrown gamers way to distract them from the removal of their basic consumer rights and freedoms. I'll never understand people who are asking corporations to take away their freedom.
