>dev should get paid twice for the resale of a copy of a game whose initial sale they were already paid for

Developers don't get any money from game sales.

Developers are paid a fixed salary. Publishers get money from game sales, all the profit.

It's fine when megacorps do it. Like when ubisoft used a crack to fix some bug in prince of persia.

Car dealers selling used cars is just them profiting from theft. The manufacturer never sees a cent of that money.

OP GOT FUCKING SCHOOLED

Imagine if GameStop used their leverage on the used games market to make a permanent spot in the supply/distribution chain. Give up a bit of the used games money in order to survive when the digital age hit.

Fucking retards

Developers get laid off if it doesnt sell enough, stupid communist faggot.

Huh. So you CAN download a car.
