Uhhh, yeah? Physical media can get scratched and broken, at which point no longer has value. Value decreased to nothing -> degradation of value. That's an extreme case, but still, even with games that work perfectly there is degradation of value. Otherwise, why would Gamestop sell used copies at a lower price? If the value is the same as a new copy, why don't they sell it at the same exact price? If it's of collector status, then just opening up the package can completely ruin the value. Just opening the package degrades the value of the game, because it goes from being new to being opened which doesn't have the same value. |
Precisely. Digital content doesn't suffer from this so how could they sell used dlc? There's no difference between a USED digital item and a NEW digital item , so how can there be a monetary difference ?
