Good read, but about the simply enforcing the license excuse:
Nowhere in the eula it says that your are prohibited to sell your game.
For example from the mass effect eula:
http://eacom.s3.amazonaws.com/EULA_Mass+Effect+3_en_10.5.11+FINAL.pdf
Any commercial use is prohibited. You are expressly prohibited from sub-licensing, renting, leasing or otherwise distributing the Software or rights to use the Software. The term of your License shall commence on the date that you install or otherwise use the Software, and shall end on the earlier of the date that you dispose of or transfer the Software
You are not allowed to alter or copy or decompile and re-use any of it's components, i.e. the intellectual property is not yours. The disc copy is. Selling your disc / license is not prohibited.
However the 10 share plan, or two people playing at the same time goes directly against the eula:
Unless expressly authorized by EA, you are prohibited from making a copy of the Software available on a network where it could be used by multiple users. You are prohibited from making the Software available over a network where it could be downloaded by multiple users.
So please stop with second hand sales have always been prohibited by the license agreement, and MS is simply enforcing the Eula now (according to that link). I don't see it.
