The decision of Microsoft seems very illogical since it will be for sure, very unpopular among gamers. So is the Redmond giant devoid of judgment? Probably not. For several years, the video game industry has been fighting the second-hand market which represent a considerable loss of money to them.

"Why a dumb move may be smart"
However says that is not smart
Microsoft didn't prove itself this gen
It won't the next
Microsoft is promoting 4 year old games (assassins creed 2 and halo 3) Sony is bringing out 2 new IP for the ps3. Microdick aint releasing shit
And until they start showing RESPECT to the consumers, they will fall hard next gen
I have a feeling that PS4 will beat X1 in North America this gen..It won't be because of the games it all comes down to being consumer friendly..MS had a ton of exclusives at E3 but none of that matters because the console is too restricted for indies and consumers...MS is turning into the Apple of the gaming industry with all these red flag restrictions..Soo,i'm going to skip over X1 just like i do when it comes to supporting Apple[closed]hardware..
In terms of decreasing positive popularity around your product then yes it is smart.
