LOL if you think used game sales is not killing gaming, there have been multiple articles saying this for years.
I know you are going to compare it stuff like used movies, music, and cars so let me poke holes in that before you even bring it up.
These are the ways creators make money off of their products.
Movies = 4 streams of revenue: Theater, digital rentals, dvd sales, tv syndication.
Music = 3 streams of revenue: Radio, concerts, music streaming sites.
Cars = different model, much higher profit margin much longer length of ownership.
Games = 2 streams of revenue first sale (dd or disc), dlc, and not everyone who gets the disc buys dlc.
Another thing of note is that movies and music don't have stores like gamestop pushing used sales.
