You do realize that the only reason that other forms of media don't restrict it is because they can't, right? Digital media is in a unique position to do this because the technology that we use this media on gives them the ability to restrict it's usage. And don't think for a minute that the used market hasn't done damage to book, and video sales. It has. Again, they just don't have the same ability to combat it.

But they survive and thrive despite it. If they had the ability, you can guarantee they would try and stamp out used sales – but out of greed more than survival.
And that’s a problem with digital media – it gives people better control over their creative content, but it can easily be abused.
