That is an absurd assertion on your part. It has nothing to do with the use of the CD or its content. If some idiot company were to issue such a copyright, then I would not buy it (even though that copyright probably wouldn't hold up in court). If they can live without selling their product to me and others like me, then more power to them.
it's only absurd because you can't understand the reality behind expanded fair use copyright law. you either own what you purchased or you don't.
you stated
"If the company is selling me rights to view/listen/copy a product on a particular device, then that is their right."
if a company can tell which CD player in MY house that i can play the CD that I PURCHASED, it will be no different then them telling me who i can vote for and what i can eat for lunch. no fine print should be able to do that. nor should people support any twisting of the copyright laws to do that. is just plain BS.
