Yes, BUT...

There is buying a licence to use.
And there is buying a copy you can use.

This is very much different. Maybe buying a copy of music with a tag attached saying you cannot distribute it further is ok, but saying they can take this copy you bought at any time and make terms how you can use it is another level.
