Xbox One: If you had your chance, how would you do DRM on the X1 ?

I don't think this is the case. Yes, every Xbox One will need that one-time-internet connection with the initial setup, but to install a new game you don't need one as far as I understood. So when you buy it and first start it up, you need internet for that time, but not after that. Thus, when buying a used game disc, you would not be required to be connected to internet with what we know at the moment.

You are right, looks like i didn't really express myself properly, if it were to need at least 1time online authentication they could still have the DRM.
Who buys a console and NEVER has internet? Would a initial authentication like steam hurt anybody? It at least brings back the convience the previous model would have offered.. discless play even with discbased games.
 
I guess that would partially defeat the purpose of removing the check-in in the first place. Dunno, I will have mine connected 24/7 anyways.
 
1. Keep physical disc DRM identical to xbox360. Some people need offline play.
2. Return digital download DRM to its original e3 Xbox One form. The Xbox 360 digital download DRM is too restrictive and not future facing. Digital downloads need to get more features and lower price than physical discs to undercut physical used game sales.
3. Create an ecosystem that will allow you to permanently use your digital downloads, such as creating a Windows 8 Xbox One app. So, when Xbox two comes out you can still play Xbox One games without needing to keep yet another console around. Xbox One needs to be integrated far deeper into the windows three screen ideal.
