Actually I study US intellectual property law, I respect it and appreciate it, but in this case I put in my fair share of money into these products already, and as far as economics are concerned I am an advocate of free trade - if I purchase a house, I expect that I can sell it again unless for some strange reason I am told explicitly that I cannot at least at the time of purchase (which would make me reconsider) - what peevs me most is that someone is trying to tell me that I cannot sell it after the fact, without telling me why and how I should know not to.
