Of course it's not true. What happens is that those licenses add
restrictions upon copyright. That's one of the reasons you have to
agree: they add restrictions on what you can do as if in a contract
(and thus many confuse copyright licenses with contracts,
unfortunately).
Then please explain to me why David is insisting of the opposite.
That the CD is property, sure, but one cannot put additional
restrictions on the licensed software on that CD without the
permission of the copyright holder. And copyright law still applies,
so there is no possible way to claim that `since this is internal use
copyright law doesn't apply'; which is exactly what David is claiming.
