You are confusing "sales" which are covered by sales or consumer sales laws, and copyright laws. Copyright only handles a few exclusives rights of the copyright holder and related things. Typically they cover copying, distribution and making it available to the public. That is is. Normal "use" is not an exclusive right of the copyright holder. hence you don't need any permision or license to use something. Sure, software creators might want you to believe differently, but that does not change the laws.

Uhh... my quoted comment didn't even address your right to use material for which you have purchased license to. Not in any way. If you purchase media which is protected by copyright, you are entitled to use it (personally, at any rate; you cannot legally buy a copy of a movie on DVD and then charge people to come watch it on your gigantic big-screen TV, for instance) in any way you see fit. That has absolutely nothing to do with the laws regarding making copies of that material, which is the only thing I was addressing in my comment -- so I'm completely lost as to what you think I'm confused about.
