There is absolutely nothing wrong with any of those expect Pirating.

I will never agree with developers/publishers on this one.  They want special treatment for some reason that I will never understand.  Well, I understand their reasoning, but I don't agree with it.

 

Why is it ok for me to sell my 330 second hand?  it's taking a sale away from BMW.

Why is it ok for me to sell my TV second hand? it's taking a sale away from Samsung.

Why is it ok for me to sell my DVD of Batman second hand?  it's taking a sale away from Warner Bros.

Why is it ok for me to sell my Pearl Jam CD second hand? it's taking a sale away from Epic records.

Governments don't seem to have a problem with the above, so why should the gaming industry get special treatment?

 

When the second hand market is mentioned with gaming (ebay, gamefly, etc), it becomes an issue.  

I do think that pirating is an issue (however, no idea on how to fight it).  

 

imo.

Some governemnts don't see a problem with Pirating so why is pirating up there? I think used digital media is as much of a problem as piracy. Yes that means music too.
