Ah, the new, up-to-date definition of ownership: it's almost like the old ownership, and it's pretty clear what you can and cannot do. It's not dramatic, it's a non-issue, just don't hold it that way and everything will work.

Again: Does that matter? What – specifically – is the problem?

Ignore the word ownership and its definition for a second: Is the amount of stuff you can do with files compared to CDs really a problem? It’s clear to me what I can and cannot do, I can make an informed decision and I really can’t understand people who think that what they give up with files is a problem.

They might personally prefer to – for example – re-sell their music. That’s fine. I don’t need that. But that’s a question about taste, not any kind of earth shattering problem.
