Do people in this thread realize that video games are not even close to being the same as a car or other such physical goods? |
How are they not the same thing? They are my property. I bought my games with my money to use for my pleasure and I will sell them when when that pleasure is gone just like I do with a car, house, or any piece of property.

WHen you buys a game you don't buy the game you buy the bits, that's why Intellectual Property exists. When you can make me a carbon copy down to the smallest detail of a Ferrari, call me.

Did you notice how you switch your whole argument to "you can actually copy a game but you can't copy a Ferrari that easy?!?" Wow, nice logic you have there. The point is that I bought a product for use. That product becomes mine the moment its in my hands. If I were to copy the game and sell it then I"m doing an illegal activity. When I sell something used, I am not doing an illegal activity. That is my right as the owner of that property. Try again pls

I don't see how my logic changed at all. It's just proving you that you are buying a digital copy, not a physical copy, and you cannot treat them the same way. Again, I want you to show me how you can perfectly make a copy of a Ferrari, until you can then you have very faulty logic. I would LOVE to see you copy the Ferrari and try to sell it. I'd be your first customer in fact.

Oh, I'm sorry. A digital copy is different from a physical copy. Guess what? To buy that digital copy you need a physical medium. But hey, I guess when I buy a car I'm not buying the engine that makes it run!!! I mean, isn't that "intellectual property?" Crap, I just realize the body of a car can be an intellectual property! I guess I don't own anything with a car!!!!
Great logic there. You're still not making your argument why I should not be able to resell my games.
