But then I suppose some people would claim you are simply transferring ownership, but really the record company would still rather see two sales rather than one copy being passed around.

Ah, i didn't even know whether the artist or record company got the used sale money. I guess someone besides the shop would have to, or they'd shut those places down. I'm not sure how it actually works, but yeah, if the record company gets money, they would probably rather have it resold.
How mysterious. I don't want to research it right this second, though...
