Etho, they where beta testers. They got a game early so they could test it, not leak it to the general public. This isn't DRM, this broke an NDA, and they can be sued for doing this. So yes it is legal to this, and I think Microsoft's judgement is right. I would say the same thing if Sony did this.

Any retail Xbox One machine can be in the beta test.

So what? They knew what they signed (I hope) and Microsoft had the total legal right to do it. If it where a regular scenario, it would be unfair. But they signed an NDA, which means what Microsoft did was legal. Microsoft could've done something much worse than just brick their consoles ( e.g. sue them and indebt them for the rest of their lives).
