The original question was "Should the content provider make the license so the licensee can transfer it?"
Yes, but with veto option by the licensor if he reasonably feels the new licensee will cause harm to his business in some way or another. Based upon what Paul is trying to argue in this thread that sounds reasonable.
However, Paul is only using that as an excuse if you haven't noticed. Otherwise, he would have been agreeable in the past for a legitimate new licensee to be allowed a transfer of license for a small maintenance fee perhaps. He isn't doing that at all. His motives aren't about saving the content or saving the industry. It's purely motivated by greed, which is fine but odd that he won't just come out and admit that.
