It is hard to say one way or another. As a purchaser the idea of used digital software is really pointless. Steam, Sony, and Microsoft already put up 50 - 80 % off sales on many good games, or just plain give them away as part of a subscription. If you can pick up the best game from 2 years ago for $5 I don't see the reason for not buying new.

The same applies for movies, there was a time when VHS or DVDs sat and no one would watch them so people put them out in yard sales. Now the movie is in your library for all time. You keep it in the cloud and stream or D/L it at you leisure. It is not taking up space in the house, and people can already find movies on sale for as little as 2 or 3 dollars through digital, or for 9 dollars a month on a streaming service.

Additionally, I don't doubt the platform holder would take a cut on every used content sold since you are using there service to make the transaction. So I fell it will probably happen just for the fact that SCE, MS, ect. will want a cut of every pie they can get there hands on.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.
