If the merchant believes he sold you the right to download an item, and use it for personal use only in a non-commercial setting, and you disagree and believe you bought the download itself, and have the right to sell it, then it seems fair that the merchant be informed of this disagreement. Otherwise, it seems, you are violating the contract without even bothering to challenge it, which may be legal, but not ethical.
