Unsure how to feel about this. Its still subject to the bullshit "you dont own it lol you just lease a license lmao gottem" but the 2nd hand market stays in place.
It's pretty clear that it means the next Xbox will be digital only, but MS wants to get ahead of the Sony backlash by letting people take their entire(*) library with them to the next gen.
It's a dark future dressed up as short-term convenience.
