Then that is unquestionably piracy.
  My apologies, since this is not a legal thread, but I couldn't let an incorrect statement ( also made in the wrong place)go without a response:
  NOT "
piracy".  What it may be is bad business.  Piracy is STOLEN music.  These people PAID for the music, shifted it, and are making what is NOW a bad decision in a litigous to sell what they are no longer using.
   While this may no longer be a very bright idea ( making them no longer 
compliant to a 1:1 concept, and thus an easier target for "settlement" money) it has nothing whatsoever to do with 
"piracy".
 Apologies again,  just clearing up a misunderstanding.  We now return you to the original subject- what sounds like a pretty good deal!
