I don't know how you could consciously support a company that promotes things that will limit your ownership rights, especially considering you seem to like those things.

That's what I was thinking, stop making people jump through hoops and just scrap it. Plus having exemption codes just sounds like someone would find a way to crack the console within a few months and lift the restrictions.

Difference is, MS has the DRM infrastrcure there and available for devs if they want to use it.

Sony it seems (from what we know) doesn't, yet publishers still have the option to enforce 'something'. Last gen this open attitude led to garbage like trying to set up metal gear online :lol:

In all fairness, you can sell your Sony CDs and movies to your friend and make 100% of the money. On the other hand, you are forced to have a middle man to sell Xbone games, and the middle man will want his cut, and the publishers will want their cut...so in essence, your cut will get significantly smaller.

Yeaup, it sucks. I wouldn't buy a Sony console either if they did this same shit. I'll just wait til the end of this gen and pick up whatever titles I may have missed out on (hoping that I can find sealed copies for cheap I guess). At least with PC gaming you get to pick the price at which you will be getting screwed at.

The only DRM they *all* have would be the requirement for the X1 to log online every 24 hours. This is due to you being able to play all games off you HDD without the disc.

Still applies to you. Considering you specifically said rent in your original post. 

$10 online pass is different from losing ownership rights. I also don't think I have ever entered a one on my Ps3, if you were generally curious.
