so by your logic i should have a right to do whatever i want with the dvd i bought

if i want to rip it and post it on the torrent i should be allowed to do that since i paid for it mine i should be able to do with it as i please.


you don't buy the right to drive a car, you buy the car

if you want property rights to dictate the transaction there are no such thing as licience rights to consider.

if you want licience rights to be the bases of the transaction, then you have a problem because your control over liciencing right are given to you by the government in exchange for your agreement to respect fair use.

pick one

you can't have your cake and eat it too
