My understanding is that if you buy a CD/DVD, you own that copy. If you copy that either as a disc or a hard drive you own that original copy. If you sell that original and retain the copy, you essentially have gained profit by retaining a copy then re-selling. The industry sees that one copy was paid for but two copies exist and they have been cheated out of the second copy.
As far as selling your originals, I agree with the comments made about retention. First off if you ever damage your hard drive you have copies to rebuild your library. Second if a better storage technology comes along(just wait) you have the originals to transfer from your best original. I hope to do this someday as well, and plant to package them up and store them so that they would be easy to move. In the balance what you will receive for your collection, especially in a bulk sale, that money will be a minor temporary gain at best.
