[QUOTE="JiffyPopTart, post: 5802048, member: 4881"] Not true. If I go buy a copy of Rock Band it comes with a code I enter on Xbox live to download an extra pack of songs. Later on if I want to sell or give away my copy of Rock Band to a friend there is no way for me to transfer those songs. Thus I am being stopped from selling or giving away for free something I own and have paid for. The slippery slope is going to be just how much each studio include in the envelope of things you can't transfer because you downloaded it. Another example....if I buy Fallout 3 and all the DLC as it comes out, all I can sell or give away is the base game. If I wait and buy Fallout 3 GOTY edition with all the content on the disc I can sell or give away the whole pie. At some point people have to put their foot down and say no more or eventually EVERYTHING is going to be "Buy once and never be able to sell" if publishers can get away with it...including music, games, programs, and electronic books. DS PS Sorry to derail the thread....the game really did seem fun. [/QUOTE]
