I understand you are frustrated, but let me give my (dissenting) opinion. It's not salty, I promise ;)
Let's take an example from the mobile market. I have an iPhone and an iPad. Some apps are "Universal" apps, meaning I can use them on any device I have with just one purchase. Other apps are not this way. It's not a requirement, it's just a thing some developers do. If the app is universal, great! If not, I will have to purchase another copy of it to use on my other device. Here's an even better example, again from the mobile world. I have an iPhone 6. I also have an iPhone 4. If I buy an app for my 6, it's a pretty safe bet it's not going to work on my 4.
And again, another example. I have a PS3, and PS2. I bought a copy of Sportsball 2003 for my PS3. There is a version out for PS2 as well, but I didn't buy it. Should I expect that my PS3 version will work in my older console? No, clearly not. If I want to play Sportsball on my older console, I will need to purchase a copy for that platform.
Bungie had "Crossbuy" available for the vanilla game, Expac 1 & 2. They did not have to offer that, we were not entitled to that, and they certainly do not have to continue to offer that. They (surely) want to take this game fully into the "next" generation, and part of that is deprecating older consoles. That's the nature of the industry. Maybe you understand where I'm coming from? I'm not saying it's right or wrong, I'm just saying it is what it is, you know?

I know what you are saying, but this was why I made the thread strictly on promotional material. Not the game itself. If you can get free emblems by website code, donate and have a shader/emblem on all 4 consoles, and yet the packages you bought are in the same shop for the same company. Then they should be allowed across the board. Instead your account which already knows you have the content and shows it on your profile which no other way could. Has it locked out. When blacksmith was preordered it never specified for one console only or I'd just get XB1. Bungie used to be fan friendly and now it sucks because things like this are swept under the rug. It's a shader, its a promo pack you've already purchased and shows on your account. There's no need for someone to purchase 2 collectors editions just to reacquire whats on your profile
