Atrocities asked:
How do you sign a CD?
That's a good point. You can't agree to the EULA of a store bought game or app until after you've purchased it. If you don't agree to the EULA you've just wasted your money because you can't return opened software.

What I am asking is, do you have a right that you are losing here?
By legal precedent, yes. According to Title 17 Chapter 1 of the US code, also yes.

That's what I mean when I ask if this is an inalienable right.
Inalienable, well... depends on who you ask. Some hold that it is a part of free speech and therefor it would be. I'm not sure if I would take it that far.
