With software and music media etc. you don't buy the physical good (the CD, DVD etc. which you seem to be talking about) but the right to use it, listen to it etc. One could argue though that this mode of thinking is inherently broken because you usually don't get the right to use it, listen to it etc. under any condition but only with the right software/hardware equipment. And since you're usually not allowed to make copies or to transfer it to another system, the correct use of the good equates the good anyway.
