How used/trade-ins will work on XBone

The article doesn't say this exactly, but with all the details and account info, it makes it sound like you won't get trade in credit at a store, but it will go directly to your Xbox account. :/

"A gamer walks into a retailer and hands over the game they wish to sell. This will only be possible at retailers who have agreed to Microsoft’s T&Cs and more importantly integrated Microsoft’s cloud-based Azure pre-owned system into its own.

The game is then registered as having been traded-in on Microsoft’s system. The consumer who handed it over will subsequently see the game wiped from their account – hence the until now ambiguous claim from Phil Harrison that the Xbox One would have to ‘check in’ to Microsoft’s servers every 24 hours.

The retailer can then sell the pre-owned game at whatever price they like, although as part of the system the publisher of the title in question will automatically receive a percentage cut of the sale. As will Microsoft. The retailer will pocket the rest."

I know there are a few foobar2000 users on these boards. I'm curious how everyone has customized theirs because I'm maybe looking to change up some stuff. This is mine

Tim Lambesis of As I Lay Dying arrested for hiring a hitman to murder his wife

That hitman was an undercover detective.

I don't even know what to say. As I Lay Dying is like the last metalcore band I like. I was looking forward to seeing them and Killswitch Engage in June. I don't think the ticket is worth the price of admission now, though. I really respected him as a vocalist and lyricist. And he always seemed like a real stand-up, sincere guy in interviews and meet and greets and such. I'm really hoping beyond all hope that this isn't true, but the story and witness against him are pretty damning.

Source seems sketchy to me, but this website is putting a lot of stock in it using words like "confirmed" and "official". The pics do seem legit.
