Holy Crap

Yep! It means once someone buys a movie or music for the first time then they are entitled to do whatever they want with it. From what I read, the student was buying over there, selling over here on our soil.

Happens every day. Many used/new bookstores around my town. Do you think they send their profit to the writer??

Why “holy crap”? This is just an extension of “first use” policy which has been part of common law and statutory law for many years when it came to the reselling of copyrighted materials produced, bought and sold in the U.S.

The consequences if this case had been found in favor of the plaintiff would have been very far reaching and costly to consumers. Do some research on the case.
