Is it ever legal to resell your digital downloads of music, even if you bought them legitimately?

so it seems with Lps and tapes there is always some small resale value, while with digital downloads and streaming you can never get any of your money back.Magnepan 1.6 QR Loudspeakers, Amherst A-2000 MOSFET 150 WPC Amp, Conrad Johnson PV-10A Modded Tube Line & Phono Stage, Electrocompaniet MC II Class A Head Amp, Audio Technica AT-OC9XML Cart (Stereo) , Graham Engineering 2.2 Tonearm (Stereo) , VPI Aries-1 Turntable (Stereo) , VPI Clamp, Denon DL-102 Cart, (Mono) , Luxman Tonearm (Mono) , Kenwood KD-500 Turntable (Mono) , Michell Clamp, Marantz 20B Analog FM Tuner, Pioneer SACD, Onkyo DX-6800 CD Transport, DIY 24B/192K DAC, Sennheiser HD-650 Headphones, Headroom Max Balanced Headphone Amp, DIY Silver InterconnectsComment

This is exactly why I don't do digital downloads. In effect a download comes with an end users agreement, you know, all that fine print that you agree to whether you know it or not. Like the apps for you smart phone that if you bothered to read allows them to mine your phone for all data on it.
Big brother really is watching.Comment

If you sell an LP or tape, you no longer have the original item that you bought, but if you sell the digital download, you still have the original that you bought, which you can sell again and again. I think there would be less of an issue if when you sold the digital download, you would erase all the copies you had, even the backup of the backup on the hard drive you store with your brother-in-law,
