It now appears that not only have you not understood the differences 
between the EU exhaustion of rights doctrine, and the US 'first sale' 
doctrine, but neither have you fully understood the US doctrine.  

(Hint: Differences include the fact that one uses the term "lawfully 
made" while the other doesn't.  Similarities include the fact that both 
relate only to the sale or transfer or other disposal of "that copy".  
Not to the creation of new copies from it.)

But I've had enough of this.  We've been over this many times.  You're 
not listening.  Goodbye.
