That's what I would call sharing. The problem with physical goods is that if you share it with someone, you don't have it anymore.

With digital goods, you can share and still own the product, so both are happy.

This works perfect for consumers, but not so good for the companies....

That's what I thought. But I couldn't find a simple way to report... From the other comments I guess I will have to fax/mail a complain to them.

I really thought it wasn't allowed, but I guess I will try to fax/mail a complain...

I guess we will have to register it.

thanks for the tips.

Those are everywhere by default.
