I think as long as physical media exists consumers will continue to blur the meaning of what ownership and license actually mean. Software has always been a licensed product. The physical aspect tends to give people a false sense of ownership.

In the past this wasn't a problem but now you have huge businesses dealing in second hand games/software. Retail stores have been starting to put used games on the same shelves as New products but only a few dollars cheaper. So its only natural that the developers/publishers feel slighted.
I don't think that they should go all in on this as it would be PR suicide for the new console. They should let the publishers decide the terms of use not a system wide decision. |
