GameStop looking into reselling digital content

I just want to know how that could ever possibly work. Digital content isn't ever worn down or anything, so how do they make it less expensive without it being no different than a brand new product?

 

Yeah, there's no way this can work. People would sooner pirate games anyways. and, like sj said, the games cant be worn down. it just... it's nonsense. but I guess nothing's going to get inbetween gamestop and their money. i mean our money.

 

i mean, i don't think this will work as the others have said, but at least they are looking into the whole business of "used" games. i never did like the idea that upcoming consoles and game companies are leaning towards preventing used games from being played again by a different account rather than the one it was originally bought for (aka linking a game to one account) so while gamestop might be into the $$$$$$ it's not like they are the only ones trying to stick their fingers into the game-sales pie. i don't really like to buy games digitally as a preference (i like game boxes and the box art) but i know that's the direction things are going soooo it's only natural that people are talking about something like this no matter how unrealistic it may seem?

 

I just want to know how they plan to do this.

 

This doesn't seem like an easy feat but if they manage to do something then cudos.
