No, you may think you did, but you didn't actually purchase the _music_. You merely purchased a license to listen to the content on the medium you paid for. In a nutshell, you bought packaging and the music company agreed to let you listen to what's in that packaging as long as you don't copy/modify/distribute it beyond that packaging. That's what has so many people fed up with "buying" music -- the companies aren't selling us what we really think we're buying (or want to buy).
