It only became a real problem after the PS4 was announce to be at $400 with no restrictions. Before E3 Xbox one was the most pre-ordered and "best selling per hour" game console on Amazon. And 2 weeks after the PS4 was announce at $400, PS4 launch, KZ bundle, Battefield Bundle even the PS4 regular console were among top 10 "best Selling" per hour on Amazon.
Is the Xbox one DRM anti-consumer? Yes... Do I support it? No. Do I think that DRM would be a problem for MS to sell the Xbox one if the PS4 was not $100 cheaper? No, because their main target are US and UK where Internet is pretty decent in those countries.
