Microsoft preparing response to Xbox One DRM concerns
Responding to a Twitter user, Hryb said he will provide answers for DRM concerns and reiterated that Microsoft is listening to consumer feedback and that he is working on a response to address concerns. Hryb didn't say, however, if consumer feedback would have any impact on Microsoft's plans for the recently announced console.
Microsoft hasn't been clear on the exact DRM restrictions imposed by its upcoming console, causing confusion about how often it has to be connected to the Internet to work. Additionally, the company has said it's working on a feature "to enable customers to trade in and resell games," though it won't reveal how that method works until later.
Users of the gaming website NeoGAF recently started a campaign to bombard Microsoft and Sony with feedback on DRM issues such as persistent Internet connections requirements and similar issues, prompting Hryb's statements that Microsoft is listening to feedback. Microsoft had been expected to address DRM concerns at its E3 press conference on June 10, though the backlash may have sped up those plans.

milkshakemanDNaDee If you don't have internet in 2013, then your last priority should be a console.
If you go on vacation, you should enjoy your vacation and put away the Xbox.
My thoughts exactly.
Thank God! Somebody is finally talking sense...

Honestly I don't care about DRM it's all those dumb motion and voice commands that make me not want the console.
