When I last bought software, the box came with a license agreement spelling out the terms of my purchase. If I didn't wish to be bound by the terms of the agreement, I could return the package for a refund. The license clearly stated that I was purchasing the right to use the software; hence, I now own a 'right of use' only. The last car I bought did not come accompanied with any contracts prohibiting me from selling the car as a whole or in pieces. (I was required to agree not to export the car for one year.) I consider the entire car as my property. So, it probably depends on the terms of the agreement between the purchaser and the supplier of not only cars and software, but most other things too. Cheers, PW. P.S. A news item indicated that Bill Gates'() 959 wasn't certified because it wasn't crash tested --- too expensive for the expected quantity of U.S. imports. () Slippery way to keep the post on topic.
