Sorry man...while game is isntalled, disks have to be in the tray.

These changes will impact some of the scenarios we previously announced for Xbox One. The sharing of games will work as it does today, you will simply share the disc. Downloaded titles cannot be shared or resold. Also, similar to today, playing disc based games will require that the disc be in the tray. 

And yeah this is complete BS. People don't realize how ass backwards console gaming will be next gen cause of this. Actually hope Microsoft makes you everyone buy the Xbox and flips the switch 3 years into the console cycle. 

It makes sense.

You don't want a disc? buy digital.

But I want the freedom to do what I want with the physical media I purchase.

What freedom are you looking for?

You bought a physical media and would like to share it with a friend who lives a 20 minute car ride away? You want the freedom to choose a curier to his house? FedEx or UPS?

I bought a digital game and would like to share as well...no freedom for me.

You don't want freedom, you want to be able to buy used and resell and not pay full price. 


I have never once sold a game. I bought a few used games. I have borrowed loads of games. Some off people I would never add to my "family" on Live. This in turn has made me buy the next game in the series day one. But that is about 20 games out of almost 500 games spreading accross 9 consoles. And I still have every one of them somewhere in my house. I should break out the commadore 64 again.

So I'm not sure what you're getting at saying that people only want to buy used just because they didn't support all this DRM.
