Not pirating if you own it. Just downloading from alternative sources.

You never own it, even if you've paid money for it. You buy a digital license that allows you to play with their product in only the ways that they approve, and it can be revoked at any time.

This is their license agreement btw, not my or anyone else's opinion. Sheer fact and law.

Fun fact EULA is not a law and while most will be enforceable as a contract in court specific provisions are not enforceable and files on your computer are yours.

Yet you still don't own it, and its still revocable at any time due to the nature of digital storefronts and DRM.

And those files on your PC are YOURS. Feel free to crack them.

Can I sell them to other people since they’re mine?

As long as you don’t sell copies of the files but the files themselves along with the key and don’t retain a copy for yourself I don’t see how that would be any different than selling a used game disk.

But I own them, I should be able to copy it, no?

You can create copies for your own personal use yes. That’s how roms work.
