I thought it was a good idea having it because you can play games that you don't own by using the family sharing. They could have done a lot of good things with it. Yeah some people don't have internet or can't get on it every 24/hrs but im sure they can connect via there smart phone or pocket wifi, Even if they are capped you can still get the check done Why were many people complaining?

To be honest i don't really care either way, it's just now the PS4 people can't keep complaining, anyway they're helping MS improve the Xbox One for us.

only because there is nothing else to complain about but i really wish they try hard to work around the DRM because the installing games and playing it without disc is gone.

Just because they got rid of the 24hr checks doesn't mean those features wont work, if you have internet then it will be connected to it. And as for why they got rid of it it's because they were going to loose millions of dollars of revenue and probably still will for ever having it.

I for one liked that they got rid of the sharing thing. It's not like you and your friend could play the same game at the same time? Only one of the consoles could use the game at a time. A lot of people where thinking you could just get one copy of COD ghost and they could all play it. But they're all wrong. So I'm glad for that because if you have 10 friends on your share and you all wanna play the same game? You can't. It was really kinda stupid actually.

Microsoft got rid of the DRM because consumers did not like the idea and hence where moving to the PS4. This leads to decreased profit for Microsoft. So they made the business decision of Removing the DRM.

You should look at the late night show with jimmy fallon on youtube. On the ps4 video they are so damn defensive and on the xbox one video they disliked it and attack anyone who likes it.

They think it has 4gb of ram and is 40%weaker then the PS4.
