The point is, when you purchase something, you should be able to do whatever you want with the product.

Like it was said above, should it be illegal to stand on a chair to fix a lightbulb because the chair company decided that it could only be used for sitting?

Or should you not be able to swap out an engine in a junker to put it in a nicer body?

Should you not be able to rip open your factory made PC and use some of the hardware in another computer?

I can see the argument against piracy. You can give someone the chair you bought, but that also removes the chair from your custody. You just can't simply clone the chair. With digital media, though, you CAN make copies. However, this situation is just ridiculous. I should have full rights over any product I purchase.


whoa.
