This policy is great. I would love to share games with my family. However, I can see a pretty sever comsequence for microsoft because of this policy. Developers developing single player only games wont want anything to do with x1. This policy has the potential to cut single player game sells to one tenth of what they should be. Since you cant play your library simultaniously, multiplayer games will be fine, but people will take advantage of single player games...

I have the same feeling. Although if this is true it could be a decent way of sharing games but publishers will absolutely hate this and block it completely. If you saw read MS's PR release, it says 3rd parties can either allow or not allow game sharing. I don't see any publisher allowing this level of game sharing if they are already not happy with the traditional way of just lending discs.

That said, one caviat I see is that the 10 people you add may become permanent, so you can't change them. Or something MS has planned.
