MY HOUSE NOT YOURS
"It's taking our key and breaking into our house and stealing what we've made,"

Its MY house, you sold it to me, sure you might hold the designs to houses of my type, BUT YOU SOLD ME THE DAMN HOUSE AND ITS CONTENTS!

If I want to break into MY HOUSE to use the property I BOUGHT then I will damn well do it. Thanks to Jon I now don't have to kick the door down.

Just because your the architect doesn't give you the right to decide how I use the house you sold me.

----------
You sell DVD's with an instance of a movie on them. Its not good pretending that somehow the DVD is still yours or that copy of the movie is still yours, it isn't. Your rights ended and mine began when you sold it to me.

Now you want to take away my copy of the DVD. Thats stealing.
