Would you purchase a Hardware Backward Compatibility add-on?

Software compatibility coming late in the platform's life and not supporting all titles or added cost for all gamers when some hardware components are integrated in the new system to offer compatibility with the previous machine's games?

Used games sales... money back to publishers?

I wanted to make a small followup to a previous post about the used market as driver of new sales and point out this interesting Ars' Technica article and a very interesting new initiative in the used game market. More money for people selling their games, money to developers for each copy sold to other users by the store, and a profitable business model. Does it sound impossible to you? Well, I think this article is for you then!
