Ostro we have a right to voice our opinions when a company is changing the freaking industry as a whole for the worse. It doesn't mean that we are cry babies.

Some people who love gaming can't afford $60 a game and want to just rent games for some $ a month but guess what with M$'s new policy they can't.

Wanna share games with your college or local buddies? Well you gotta go through many loops in order to do it.  

And this is just the start of it. If people weren't vocal (cry babies as you call them) then the U.S. wouldn't exist. Slavery would still exist. Monopolies would still be ripping of customers and no one would do shit about it. Be Vocal and Be proud.

It's not "a" company, it's several companies. The major third party publishers (the likes of EA and Activision) demanded this and Microsoft didn't decline, because they need those companies' games. It's pretty shortsighted to blame Microsoft alone.

I am curious. Where exactly would these major publishers go to do their business if M$ declined them DRM? We already know for sure that Nintendo aren't putting any DRM in their box and Sony has a good chance of not doing it as well. So neither of these platforms are alternatives that have DRM for publishers to go to after boycotting Xbone for not having DRM.

This all screams of M$ getting in bed with publishers to nickle and dime the consumers in the worst ways possible.
