I have no problem in principle with EA's $10 fee for online if you buy a used game. Online is an ongoing service cost, and everyone who uses it should pay their way. Be it XBL fees, a proportion of the price of a new game, or a one off fee for people who have bought used games. I am totally fine with paying $10 in this situation if I know about it before choosing to buy a used game.
The fact I rarely play online means I'm not likely to have to fork out. But for games like Demon's Souls, LBP, LBP2 and MNR I would pay such a fee gladly. Of course I like those 4 games well enough that I'm going to buy them new, but there will still be planty of others who want to buy those games used. And I may buy the odd used game that I end up wanting to do a bit of online play (I'm only really interested in online coop).
