The used games issue would be easy to solve if thats what they were interested in solving. Have DRM up that expires after 3 months. Problem solved. There would be no used games shortly after alunch and we wouldnt lose our right a property.

Alas, this is not their concern. Their concern is how to possibly extort as much money as possible.

Seriously, you guys have to get it out of your head that this DRM thing is used to protect..something. Its not. It's to futher the greed of companies like EA, Activision, Ubisoft which annoyingly are the companies making the most bank on this side of the industry.

I completely agree. The scenario i described was one if they actually really were worried on the possible "problem". I dont think that used games cut into physical sales significantly and i think they are means of financing more game sales. I actually think that destroying the used game market is gonna result in fewer sales overall for the industry. This is just blind greed.
