At what point during the picking up of the CD, carrying it over to the cash register and paying for it did I sign any terms of service? Where were the usage rules? Was anything that backs up your argument visible and made clear during the purchase?
Most people who buy a CD expect the purchase transfered ownership of the media and it's contents to them. It is not unreasonable for them to have this expectation. Any label that expects me to purchase media many times over just to have the freedom to be able to use it on different devices will quickly lose a customer.
