When you buy a product, who "owns" the product? Is it the company who created the product or is it the purchaser? The reason this is asked is that for most products, the purchaser owns it. However, for electronic devices, it is usually difficult to tell. For example, a DVD may not be copied, even though you bought the disc itself. Or, if you buy a video game console, you are prohibited from hacking or modding it by law.



-When buying a product the owner owns it because they bought it with their own money; moreover, some products are not own by the pwerson who buys the product because the copyright sign means it cannot be modified or copied. Depending on the kind of product you buy, it is the owners or you either have possesion of it. Offcourse, artists make music and people buy their discs, in order for artists to make money they need to have a copyright sign because the artists created the songs and a person buying them can just own them. It just means that they are allowed to listen to their music because that how artists make a living. Other products like a bar of Dove soap the owners own that because they bought it and its a product that cant really be reamade, for example a song, game, or a movie can be easily be remade so they have to have copyright laws. Those laws help protect the burning and reselling, and some kind of copying the original piece. A bar of soap cant be copied and resold. Depending on what you are buying, it menas that you are the real owner of it or not. If you buy food it your , but if you buy a dvd it is not because a company made it and it is only for entertaintement purposes. You did not write the script or paid actors to do a movie, but you did pay a price to buy cheese, a cheese that cant be easily remade and sold.
