I'm getting a pretty sensationalist vibe off of this article, it's got the feeling of something written by a lobbyist. Used games don't strike me as the cause of game variety disappearing, but instead the increasingly large amount invested in each individual project, discouraging all but the safest options. Playing the violin on behalf of the indies seems disingenuous too, many of them publish via Steam or online stores of some description, where a used market can only exist if explicitly enabled.
