Comment on Xbox Game Pass made $230 million revenue in one month, most users pay for full subscriptions
TurnItOff_OnAgain@lemmy.world 9 months agoPretty sure you get a discount on them for being a game pass subscriber too. At least in some of them

Those discounts are nothing as compared to buying used.
I so hope that the next consoles will have disc drives…

Considering Microsoft is supposedly releasing a new revision of the Xbox Series X and S next year without disc drives, I wouldn’t get your hopes up. Given the direction the industry is moving, I wouldn’t be surprised if the PS6 and whatever Microsoft calls the next Xbox are all digital only.

I'm a little fuzzy as to why the first-sale doctrine exists for physical goods but not for digital goods. It seems to me that any reasonable economic rationale should affect either both or neither.

The Series S and Game Pass have shown that people like discounts; so either competing console is going to run into issues attracting customers if they never offer them in any form. That’s currently an issue for the Nintendo eShop.
