I guess you could sell a literal copy, yeah. But ironically, the lack of DRM binding that copy to an account by a user makes a "proof of original ownership" harder, if that's what you want.
That's not how it works with digital goods, but that's a limitation of digital goods really.
It is really both, the law tries way too hard to pretend digital data is goods that can be thought of in individual instances like physical goods can. That is how misconceptions like "owning" or "reselling" are put into people's heads in the first place.
