If you have acquired a product (e.g. bought it from a shop, downloaded
it, etc) then you do not need a licence to use it. I don't have to
agree to a licence in order to eat the loaf of bread I bought, nor do I
have to agree to a licence to use the software I bought.
"Acquiring" and "acquiring via approved means" are not the same.
Software can be GPL, but also have a use license. The GPL forces
the distributor to supply source to whoever is allowed to possess
a copy. It does not force the distributor to allow people to
acquire copies free of charge.
