Yes...such a conspiracy theory. You buy a game used, paywall goes up. The Azure system should be nothing new to you.

The Azure system will affect how consumers and Xbox Gamers purchase now at used game dealers. Gamestop is going to take it out on Xbox gamers. 

Gamestop stock dropped 5% the second this news came up.

Azure is Microsoft's cloud platform  :) I do not understand why you keep referring it as "the Azure" system while talking about their used game strategy...


Cloud or not, its going to lead to Gamestop and other used systems to not make their bottom line and taking it out on gamers on said platforms. We're all intelligent guys and girls and have some sort of sense of what happens in business.
