Doesn't sound like theft to me, it sounds more like someone making a copy of their own property and giving consent to anyone who wishes to download it. When I buy a game is it not really mine? |
Yes. That physical game disc is your's however, the content is not yours to distribute. That is still under the ownership of the creators.
EDIT: Which is why it is legal to sale your copy as a used item.
