If this is the official stance from Micro, then we can rule out the possibility of Xbox3 blocking used games.

Basically, yes. They wouldn't have this stance on a console right near the end of it's life then change it for the neXtBox. It wouldn't make any sense at all. They'll need selling points like that more for the next console, not less.

 

Another rumor seemingly bites the dust.

You know, that's a very good point.  First bit of info that has made me question the used game block rumor.  

Really wonder how/if sentiments would change around here if the neXbox didn't block used games AT ALL and the PS4 simply leaves it up to publishers (as has already been admitted/confirmed)...
