I don't wish to split hairs, but I used to work for a major leasing company.

Software copyright, by its very nature, remains with the copyright holder. This may be sold on to another new copyright holder. When you purchase a CD, for example, you are only buying a piece of hardware AND a right to hear/view its software contents. You will notice that there is a EULA document which forbids reverse engineering of the software as this would violate the copyright. If you wish to sell the CD then that is allowed but, in law, the new owner is agreeing to be bound to the terms of the EULA.

However, trying to prove violation of copyright in the retail space is not easy. In the wholesale space, though, companies are very careful of the copyright terms as a court judgement against the company can be extremely expensive.

HTH😉
