THQ is a horrible example. They didn't go under because of used games, they went under because of their own stupidity. They heavily invested in a faulty product that failed to even remotely return those investments. Everything else afterwards was just them trying to say afloat. Either way, used games are pretty miniscule in terms of harming publishers and actually creates a new market which in turn helps create more jobs.
