Can't say I didn't see it coming.  Sony has plans to put an end to buying and selling used gaames with their PS4 console.  I'll find the site and post a link here.  Very interesting read.  Gamestop is outraged as 40 someodd percent of their overall profit comes from the used game trade.

EDIT:  here's the link hxxp://www.ps4playstation4.com/PS4News

The ruling is very bad, but I see it as something they did without vote. I am in favor of all law of this sort to be a majority vote instead of a vote of  'fat cats' in private rooms.
If it was a majority vote, of the affected people, then it would be different.
off to bigger and better things - don't worry I will visit from time to time
