PS4 Gamesharing

Ok so I think that the info has come down and there is a consensus.
You can split 2 ways, 3 with restrictions.
On ps3 games could be split 4 ways. The first two would download, these are called "phantoms" because once you finished the download you could never go back into the account. After the first two were confirmed, I would split the account via qriocity online. This allowed online deactivation of accounts. So the account no longer had two people on it but the first two could still play because their ps3's didn't know that they were deactivated and would not fix itself without signing into the account.
The next two to download were called "resells". These two accounts could deactivate from the ps3 system and be transferred to another system.
On other sites, guys pay $20 for resells and $10 for phantoms. I never liked the cost breakdown because you could always find people willing to be phantoms. For you guys, there is very little to no resell market so I just made it all $15 for everyone. It was first come first serve and the only person who would always be a resell would be myself. I always just put the games once I was done in the rental forum for someone else to try. Also every 6 months you can deactivate via qriocity. So I would just do that and 2 new people could get the game for free.
So back to PS4. You can split games like this, 1 resell, 1 phantom, and 1 locked resell.
The resell and the phantom will work the same. The locked resell from what I understand cannot play the game from any account other than the gameshare account. Obviously gameshare phantoms are pretty useless for multiplayer games where you want to play with friends but may have some value single player games.
I still don't know the complete logistics of it, but am thinking of just doing a 30/30 split for games with the system that once guys finish games, they just throw them in the rental forum (corey, aj, nick already do this b/c they play games for like 4 days). If someone wants to be a gameshare phantom, we do a 30/20/10 split.
Sounds good?
