"The concept of "used games" doesn't exist" This part of the thread title doesn't make sense. Also, you could've used more appropriate example than "jacket". There is indeed a difference between software and everything else. Could I just start selling my copy of Windows 7 (not that I have such a ghastly thing) as soon as I move on to Windows 8? No, of course not. I think the whole situation is fine as it is. I've been able to buy more games (of better variety and quality) than I ever could in the previous generations of consoles. Games cost a shit ton to develop, yet they have remained at pretty much the same price since 1997 (when I got a PS1). I think we're too fond of complaining. AND, if you really h_a_t_e this licensing stuff, then just get a PS4 instead of an Xbone. Or a pc. Or Wii U. Or whatever. There's more choice than ever (at better prices), yet we still find the need to freak out and launch internet campaigns. Just don't buy that shit then. I repeat, your thread title doesn't really make sense.

There are 130 who have responped and seem to understand that title/thread.
You are obviously hypocritcal either because you are a CM or a EA/Xbobe fan. Anyway you are the type of people that I mention, who would buy and protect anything the media, the gov or any other system tells you.
Guess what? Yes you can sell Windows 7 if you don't use it, the same you can buy an iPod or Blu-ray (talking about electronic and software in physical format).
No it's not true that games cost a ton to developp and again, how is it our problem ? Again unless you are lying and you have stake in Microsoft, why would you be concerned with cost/profit as a consumer? Do you do this for oil and General Motors? For food and Monsanto? Did you defend EA in the Sim City debacle? Probably...
