"Share access to your games with everyone inside your home: Your friends and family, your guests and acquaintances get unlimited access to all of your games. Anyone can play your games on your console--regardless of whether you are logged in or their relationship to you.
So Microsoft has essentially virtualized going over to your friend's house to play games with them, only that now you have to pay a toll to do it? I'm sorry, but, when I go to a friends house and we play games, that is something that you, nor publishers, are allowed to infringe upon, and doing so violates the Right of First Sale, and if those publishers and companies are so greedy that they want to make me pay for that, then they won't get my First Sale in the first place.
Give your family access to your entire games library anytime, anywhere: Xbox One will enable new forms of access for families. Up to ten members of your family can log in and play from your shared games library on any Xbox One. Just like today, a family member can play your copy of Forza Motorsport at a friend's house. Only now, they will see not just Forza, but all of your shared games. You can always play your games, and any one of your family members can be playing from your shared library at a given time."
My 'Shared Game Library' are the rather pathetic line of discs sitting next to my xbox. While no one else plays those games but me, I still take issue that even members of your OWN FAMILY have to basically prostrate themselves before the xbox to play games, and even then, I have to have a Shared Game Library for this? No, you're overcomplicating a simple process that, while I admire you want to get involved in to help, but you're doing it wrong, and that, as will almost all other things on this list, are only going to shoot yourself in the foot.
