Here's the right answer: No, its not "yours now... [p]eriod...your property." No, "copy" is not the issue (at least not in the contexts posited by those insisting it is). And no, you cannot sell a promo copy given to you by a music label. That's precisely why they label it a "promo" copy--to retain ownership and all the attendant rights. You guys should be little more careful with unequivocal assertions, lest someone rely on them to their legal detriment. God help if you are lawyers.
