concerns regarding digital goods include copyright infringement and taxation also the question of the ownership versus licensed use or service only of purely digital goods is not finally resolved for instance the software installers of the digital software distributor gog com are technically independent to the account but are still subject to the eula where a licensed not sold formulation is used 2 therefore it is not clear if the software can be legally used after a hypothetical loss of the account a question which was also raised before in practice for the similar service steam 3 in july 2012 for instance for the european union the european court of justice ruled in the case usedsoft vs oracle that the sale of a software product either through a physical support or download constituted a transfer of ownership in eu law thus the first sale doctrine applies the ruling thereby breaks the licensed not sold legal theory but leaves open numerous questions 4 therefore it is also permissible to resell software licenses even if the digital good has been downloaded directly from the internet as the first sale doctrine applied whenever software was originally sold to a customer for an unlimited amount of time thus prohibiting any software maker from preventing the resale of their software by any of their legitimate owners 5 6 7 the court requires that the previous owner must no longer be able to use the licensed software after the resale but finds that the practical difficulties in enforcing this clause should not be an obstacle to authorizing resale as they are also present for software which can be installed from physical supports where the first sale doctrine is in force 8 9 the ruling applies to the european union but could indirectly find its way to north america moreover the situation could entice publishers to offer platforms for a secondary market 6 see also edit e commerce digital currency digital distribution digital goods auction
