Phil Spencer talks about sharing games with non Family Members
Spencer states that he does believe people will create family groups with people that aren't associated with their family at all. He believes this does ease some of the tension people had with the game sharing, but it has not put out the flames yet.

xXopticsXxFinder I believe one of the twists is that only one person can be playing a game at a time from a "family"
Thats already been announced so it is one of the twists
No its been confirmed that only everyone may be on at one time in that group but only 1 person per game unless they purchased the game themselves.

liamcole123Flawn77 So basically you can share any game you buy with the 10 selected people no matter where they live. That's pretty interesting. However, I read that only one person can play at a time so, what do you do if they are playing your game when you want to play it? Kick them off?
Hopefully it will have some sort of king system, so if the person who bought it wants to play it, they can do so whenever they want and probably boot the other person (Or give them a 10 minute time limit or something) This is a good system because then I can add my friends to the "Family" and they can share my games, and vice versa!
Actually corrected.... only 2 people can play at a time on the same game and in my opinion when you share a game as a disc, you as the owner never have access to it until you get it back so that fact that 2 people can play the same game at the same time bought by one person in opinion is badass!

slapshot101 So there are groups of 10 people who all buy different games and you can all play them at the same time? That would be very cool but I am pretty sure this is not the case.
It's set up in a way that it's like giving them the game disc without giving them the game disc. So only one person can play it at a time.
