The point Avinash should be making is that the developer has already been paid for the initial copy of the game. After that point it is no longer their property. I see no reason that the developer of a game should be able to tax all re-sale's while every other industry under the Sun has to make due with the initial sale. There is no great out-cry against used book stores, used car sales, houses being sold, discount movie theaters, second hand clothing stores (Goodwill et al), pawn shops, or any number of other businesses that have the exact same issue. If these other industries can survive the horrors of used sales, then so can the video game industry. If it cannot in the current form, then clearly something has to change or the industry will collapse on itself.
