This probably won't hold up under EU law. When you buy something used
you're allowed to continue using the software on the box that it came
with. You're however not allowed to change it, that would most likely be
copyright infringement.

"In the case UsedSoft v Oracle, the European Court of Justice ruled that
the sale of a software product, either through a physical support or
download, constituted a transfer of ownership in EU law, thus the first
sale doctrine applies; the ruling thereby breaks the "licensed, not sold"
legal theory, but leaves open numerous questions."
