US where a person was selling forward the software he had bought and court said it was indeed legal as the software was a product, not a service.

References? Licenses are transferable, but you still are bound by the conditions of the license.

Commercial EULAs however try to imply that copyright law also allows you to dictate how, where and when your work can be used.

Different to a free software license how? Have you looked at the GPL? You are not arguing on principle: the right for a company to license as they want.

The EULA does not appear magically only after the software is bought. Neither does the GPL. Even then if you have second thoughts you can refund your money.
