The correct answer is **first sale doctrine**. This legal principle allows the owner of a lawfully purchased copy of a copyrighted work to resell or loan that copy without obtaining permission from the copyright holder. In the case of Netflix, they can loan out DVDs of "Titanic" that they legally own without infringing on copyright laws.
