Do you guys know how when you buy a DVD/BR, you get a digital copy? Imagine this is true for Xbone games as well. Each game you mark as shared, gets a share copy in the cloud. Anyone in your share group can play this share copy, even if you are playing the actual copy you own. But two share group members cannot access the same share copy at once. This is what both Xbox support and Phil Spencer and others have confirmed today.

What this is saying though, is that while one member accesses the share copy of one game, another share member can access the share copy of another game. And a third can access a 3rd game. And so on. This differs from what we initially thought, which was that while one share member accessed a game on your share library, you could also access any game, but no other share members could access any game in your library.

In the end, who knows. Everything can always change.
