    This is also the case for physical copies, and has been since software was first sold

      According to media lawyers, maybe. But when I have a CD of music, or a game cartridge, I can sell it to someone else. For money. Because it’s my copy I’m selling. So, what the fuck are you talking about except ceding the point to corporate lawyers for no good reason?

        That’s technically piracy. You should be careful as some have been sued for selling 2nd hand goods.

        Just because it makes sense and is intuitive doesn’t make it correct legally speaking
