Has there been any degradation of the software? Has the program in some way become less reliable? No - this is where the pre-owned label REALLY comes into play. There IS no difference between a pre-owned game and a new one - other than the person who actually spent the time, effort, and money into developing the game in the first place doesn't get paid the second (or third or fourth) time that pre-owned game is resold.

If that means more money going to game developers - then that's actually a good thing. And if that means less torrenting of titles, well ... too damn bad.
