Sharing and gifting games should have never left for digital games policy. There is literally no reason they had to take it away.

It need the daily DRM check in to work they way they had it set up.  Otherwise one person could buy a game, and gift it to everyone.

To gift a digital game requires an internet connection.  So DRM should already be in place for digital games.  I don't see any reason why they got rid of it.

I agree wit the concept, but there are a bunch lawyers behind all sort of licensing changes that we can't see.

It's why you can't stream Netflix in the UK the same as in Canada or the USA. The companies license there media to specific markets.

It's like DriectTV, you can a USA signal in both Canada and Mexcio, but DirectTV works hard to make sure people can't do that.  Not to be mean, but they have to honor the contracts they have signed to broadcast the shows, movies and music they show.

If they do not, they are violating international laws.

It's not that the concept can't be done, it's the legal aspects that get in the way.
