That makes no sense.

If EA has a server up that can support 5000 people and they sell 5000 games, then the server will be at it's theoretical max. Even if all those 5000 people would resell their game to someone else, there would still only be 5000 people on those servers. Reselling your game doesn't magically create a 5001th player.

And any game company that offers multiplayer servers should make sure they are able to support all players. That's not the responsibility of the players, that's the responsibility of the developer. Either that or release it on the PC.
