Quote:
Can promotional CDs be resold in the open market? Last year, Universal Music Group sued Troy Augusto for reselling its promotional discs, arguing that advance CDs remain the property of the issuing company. Labels traditionally affix printing onto promotional discs that warn against resale, though the case raised serious questions about the first sale doctrine.

I like the part about the balance between the rights of the consumer and the rights of the record label.
