Thanks for ruining the greatest thing to happen to console gaming since Mario

I agree with the OP. Any anyone saying they should still have sharing you don't understand that you need the full DRM to allow digital sharing. With it a combination of disc based and digital sharing can get out of hand.

Trade-in, lend, resell, gift, and rent disc based games just like you do today – There will be no limitations to using and sharing games, it will work just as it does today on Xbox 360.

These changes will impact some of the scenarios we previously announced for Xbox One. The sharing of games will work as it does today, you will simply share the disc. Downloaded titles cannot be shared or resold. Also, similar to today, playing disc based games
will require that the disc be in the tray.

Hi, yes you can install the disc game on both consoles if you wish, but remember you can only play the game on one console at any time, as it needs the disc in the drive to play.

Specifically- Will the gold membership still apply to the other users on the console so that they can to play games online?

Sadly, no its wishful thinking as MS said, sharing for digital is dead at this time. Maybe for the future though...
