I think that this is an area where the law and society haven't yet come up with something that would be seen as fair by most people.
It seem wrong that purchases of digital media are non-transferrable. But, given the nature of digital files, it also seems wrong to allow unregulated resale.
I really don't know what the solution is, but I'm sure that it will require new legislation, as I don't think the existing laws (anywhere) adequately address the situation.
