I've given comp passes (although not necessarily lifetime ones) in the past to models or photographers I work with on an ongoing basis, but not someone I bought one set from.

I understand that a content provider or anyone really can include whatever terms they want in any deal they make of any kind. I know most people would see a requirement like that in a content provider's license and just buy and use the content and ignore the terms they did not like. I feel like my word is my bond and I'm not going to agree to that term, so I will most likely not be able to use content from a provider who requires it.

To me, a requirement like free lifetime passes buried in a license is just a way to be able to revoke anyone's license whenever the provider feels like it, as most people will probably not even notice such an unusual requirement much less comply with it. Makes me wonder how good a provider's paperwork with models and such is if they think they may need to pull all licenses in the future.
