Do you think it would be OK if a local station went and filmed a NFL game and broadcasted it without the right to do so would be ok?

A local station wouldn't have purchased anything, they would have stolen something. When I resell a DVD, I'm reselling something I've purchased (then altered). Like it or not, you give up some rights when you sell your property to others.

You don’t have the right to alter a film and resell it.

What about copyright law do you not get?

You can’t do that, its the law, and no amount of cognitive dissonance on your part will change that, ever.

Next time you rent a film, read all the small print when they roll the credits, you don’t have the right to do that. Nor do you have the right to publish someone’s book with your own foreword.
