The whole intellectual property rights arguments boils down to the fact that publishers and their suppliers don't want restrictions to tell people they're actually buying a license and not a copy. Yes, as a property holder you enjoy complete control of how those properties are used, but if they decide to sell a copy you don't get to take that sale back, unlike with a license could be termed.

So then the industry is using all it's power to avoid that designation, including lots and lots of bad faith. My opinion is that at this point the offenders need some form of punishment.

In the case where you have a legal copy, you as a consumer are free to keep that copy and keep it running.

I never learned to bullshit much, and my default behaviour when i don't know shit is doing nothing. Can anyone explain why i didn't get a degree?
