Both of you seems to miss a basic principle: the copyright holder
(the creator of the work or the one the creator has given ownership)
can dictate the use of the work. e.g. The music composer can let
anybody copy his music, or he can forbid it. There are some limitations
to the copyright holder restrictions by low (i.e. fair use). The EULA
is a way of the large corporations to overcome these limitations
(i.e. limiting the number of times you can play a disk).

Ehud.
