- jonny_eh 10y agoIf I buy a book, I don't own the IP in the book. Even though I can do what I want with the physical item, I certainly cannot (legally) sell copies of it. (To be clear: John Deere and the rest are in the wrong, I'm just nitpicking your comment)
- pdkl95 10y agoYou own your copy of that book. You do not own the right to make copies of the book, but you can do own your copy and can do with it what you want. "IP" is disinformation - "copyright" is not "property", it's a temporary monopoly granted to the creator of a work.
