Precisely and I wondered how long it would take someone to think it through.
So here is my answer.
I WILL NEVER, REPEAT NEVER ALLOW A LICENSE HOLDER THE RIGHT TO TRANSFER OR SELL THE LICENSE.
For those hard of reading.

I will also never transfer a license. The new licensee buys the new and latest license. Transfer is not even an option.
The reasons are so blindingly obvious and over on JBM they spotted it in minutes. Do you think someone at the bottom of their game, might be needing money and getting out of the business should have the rights to sell the license?
Do you think someone like Zango, Megarotic or someone doing both might think it worth offering a few dollars more to get hold of the content? Assuming seller bothers to look further than the $$$.
Same company, same domains, just a totally different business model. And all within the license.
Yes is an industry like ours with all the stand up brotherly love and caring for one another I'm sure you guys want the content rights in the hands of someone who is getting out.
New license? In the changing days we change the license to suit the times. We expect new buyers to sign the new license.
Cost, down to us. If they are going to be regular clients then fine, if not what's wrong with making money. This is a business.
Veto on who can get a new license? Too fucking right we have a veto. It's our future and our past customers future we are protecting. Amazing how many don't care about where content goes so long as they can make few bucks as they leave the business.
Goes to show why we do it the way we do.
