Im not sure why people are still having trouble wrapping their heads around the once every 24 hours check. This allows you to have digitally licensed games that you can access anywhere(with internet and a xbone) and share with the 10 "family" on your friends list until you sell your license back to the authorized resellers. Without the 24 hour check there would be no used games and people would complain in the same large numbers(it would essentially be a DD console otherwise). MS said they want a balance between gamers, publishers, retailers and resellers and they are doing it no matter haw badly (I feel) it is in the favor of publishers.


Same thing with Steam. I can't play my Steam games without internet. Its horribly restrictive. My internet cut off because of a storm for two days. I couldn't play anything I bought on steam without the system going online and updating. Its restrictive and annoying.
