When you buy a copy of a game you pay for the right to use the software, you don't OWN the software lolz.

Congratulations, you've been conned by them into thinking their way.  I own the license to play that game, I should have the right to sell that license to whomever I please.  Your point is semantics, you know perfectly well what people are arguing.

actually... I want to know why if I pay for the liscense to use the software... why I'm restricted specifically to the copy on one specific disc?

If i'm actually buying a liscense it shouldn't matter which copy i use since I'm paying for the right to use the software.

If I say... bought  the liscense to Age of Empires 2.  Then my dumbass friend brole my copy of Age of Empires 2...

Why is it illegal for me to play a pirated version of Age of Empires 2.  I own the liscense to play the software aferall.
