This makes Anna's archive a bit problematic with that logic since when you pay for a paper you get a PDF copy?

These companies maintain that even though you possess a PDF, you still do not own it and do not have the rights associated with ownership.

I would consider it more problematic if the author of the paper got any of that and not the journal the author had to pay to be published
