An interesting metaphor, but this isn't about patents at all. It's about copyright, and what are your implicit rights when you buy a CD, or an MP3 from iTunes or Amazon.
Copyrights, patents, and trademarks are very different things; we need to be very exact when discussing them in the context of discussions about our basic liberties, or we can be easily dismissed as not grasping the fundamentals of what we're talking about.
