Just watching the beginning, I started to laugh....
"What industry in the world punishes the consumer for finding value in their old or used items?
--- The Auto industry, Media Industry(records>Casettes>CDs>MP3), Computer Tech,... etc.
"When I buy a used car, do I pay extra for the AC?"
--Yes, if you have to repair it. Why not complain about having to pay for gas?
"When I buy a used house, do I pay extra to use the furnace?"
-See Pherione's recent water heater that went Kablooey. Yep, there too. And the electric bill.
"When I buy a used DVD, do I pay extra for the special features?"
-Do you know how many versions of 'Aliens' were released? And Star Wars... Geez... I could go on.
"So why is it that with used video games we are being forced to pay for content that under any normal circumstances is part of the game itself?"
Dude, if you bought a used car that works fine and you bought custom rims, you're paying for an upgrade. That's what the downloadable content is... an extra or upgrade. Suck it up.
Mind you, this game-store guy's youtube not exactly into games... just marketing
I won't discount the legal rights to sell used content like books, comics, DVDs, and etc. But he's sure gonna hate finding out that the upcoming PS4 only has 'download games' like the PSP Go. No used games to sell back. Hell, you only get the 'license' he talked about... not even have the whole game on your PS4 console. Sucks to be him.
EDIT: And I got that from just the first 4 minutes. Didn't have time for the rest
