I believe one of the bigger issues is that gamers always believe that something has to benefit them.

So, consumers don't like anti-consumer behavior?

No, consumers do not care about anything but for themselves.  They do not care about the business, the companies or their employees.  The only thing they care about is if it makes them happy.   Maybe consumers need to grow up.  No all deals will be about them so best to DEAL WITH IT.

"No, businesses do not care about anything but for themselves.  They do not care about the consumer, the consumer's family, or their fans.  The only thing they care about is if it makes them money.  Maybe businesses need to grow up.  No all deals will be about them so best to DEAL WITH IT."

Consumers are looking out for what is best for them.  Businesses are looking out for what is best for them.  That is perfectly logical.  To suggest that consumers should not look out for themselves to suggest the same for businesses.  Unless you are suggesting that this relationship should be a one-way street with one side holding all the power.
