This makes buying physical even more attractive, physical and no need for disc switching

I hope this gives the boost Xbox needs to stomp playstation into the ground once the dickless ps6 releases. Not that I'm ever going back to consoles.

…the programme still allows for used game sales, game borrowing and so on. If you buy a disc, convert it to digital, then sell it on, whoever inserts it next into their Xbox console will get the entitlement for their account and remove it from yours…

This seems great.

If discs are going away, this at least makes it more tolerable.

Manufactured consent.

To call out the elephant in the room: What happens when Microsoft shuts down the servers or is bankrupt?
