Yeah, having those in the extreme sense that everyone seems to be saying will happen is very unlikely. Here is what I think is the possibility with all of these rumors.
1. They are implementing no used games and always online required as an option in their OS which would allow publishers to block used games if they choose to (and by default require the console to be connected to the internet for those games). I believe this is the most likely scenario.
2. Microsoft is leaking these rumors as part of their marketing plan to do the following: Make people think and talk about the next Xbox (bad publicity is better than no publicity; and this news isn't so negative that people will automatically say they aren't getting the next Xbox simply because of these rumors). By doing that, they making people also think less about the competition. And now that they have set the bar so low, anything they announce will sound absolutely fantastic.
