Well the last line is a great get out of jail free card for Jack there.
As for used games, TBH if online passes become the norm then if I was a publisher I'd actually be for them because they make games the only entertainment medium (so far as I know) where the publisher would get potentially multiple follow up cuts of the second hand market.
I mean theoretically one physical copy could change hands four times and generate four online pass purchases. Heck - I'd be encouraging people to trade on games.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
