I don't rule out the possility of sony looking at the subject just wanted to confirm that there is no basis besides it make sense trying to profit on second hand (ps pass was a not overly customer burden but they discontinued it) giving discount on digital is quite enough on the no second hand drm subject.

The pass itself wasn't overly a burden, but the pass itself coupled with Gamestop's ridiculous markups is pure insanity from a consumer perspective.   Which is basically where the translating costs to consumers thing comes into play.

yep that was a problem. but consumer have the more troublesome option of trading game directly instead of being screwed by gamestop paying low on used and selling it with a premium... but we have to consider they take all the risk so they deserve more profits on the operation.

Microsoft wanted 0 risk and full profit that was abusive.
