Consumers bombard Sony execs with messages on Twitter to avoid Xbox One policies

PlayStation fans are are calling on Sony to shun DRM and a pre-owned games block in the upcoming PS4.
Tagged over Twitter as #PS4NoDRM and #PS4USEDGAMES, consumers have posted a plethora of messages to Sony executives pleading with them not to implement usage restrictions on the PS4.

Fans were sparked into action the social network and other sites such as NeoGaf and Reddit amidst reports that Sony may enact similar restrictions on the PS4 as those seemingly implemented by Microsoft for the Xbox One.
Confusion currently surrounds some of Mircrosoft’s DRM policies, with the company being vague and issuing contradictory statements over claims that users will be required to go online at least once per day to run the Xbox One, and that each game will come with an activation code tied to an individual’s Xbox Live account. This would mean second-hand owners can’t play the game without first paying a fee.
US journalist Geoff Keighley recently claimed on GameTrailers that he had heard Sony was also likely to enforce some form of used game restrictions, and that he “can’t see publishers allowing one system to do one thing and one the other”.
