The act copyright sanctions is copying. You may sell your copy to anyone you
want and that is fully legal. No license applies unless you have actually
signed something -- a contract with the supplier. Don't be intimidated by all
kind of conditions on the package. They are void, unless they state what
copyright law says, and in that case they are redundant.
