A content provider can include whatever they want in their licensing terms. If you accept those terms, that's the deal.

Many SPONSORS require that you provide access to any members areas you may have (on demand) or they can close your acount (TOS).

It is reasonable for a content provider to perform risk management BEFORE choosing to put their content into your hands. Once you have their content, unlike a sponsor however, a content provider determining that you may be violating your license agreement has less effective recourse than a sponsor (who can close your affiliate account).

Because of the rampant copyright infringement and fraud related to content, I only produce and provide my content on a very limited (or exclusive) basis to players I know.
