Yeah i know.  And it would also still be illegal for that second new 
owner to distribute MP3's from the second hand CD.  The CD is purchased 
under the assumtion that it is for entertainment purposes only or some 
such shlock.  Just like you could not Buy or rent a movie at block 
buster then charge people a fee to view the movie.

For the most part i think this sort of crap only affects the big boys.  
Could really give two shits about em any way.  Im sure it can all get 
really confusing...
