How many times is the license transferable

[masterking]

Hello,
As EU has new rules for digital products it's possible to sell as unlimited times for these.Now my question is how many times can be the license transferred before this kind of rule it was 1 time has this now been affected by the change.

Please, link for the relevant recent law changes that perform this.. and I'm not talking about the 2012 case.

But as I say, this has nothing to do with the licence transfer rules mentioned above, which appear to be 2012 or earlier maybe.

Exactly the point I was making.. the only recent thing is the VAT. The other is a ruling from 2012 that GTB apparently made reference to over there... and has probably already been vetted by XenForo as to how it would effect them.

and has probably already been vetted by XenForo as to how it would effect them.

I doubt anyone would know until there is a dispute and a test case, the wording seems a bit open to interpretation. But I'm no lawyer.

The whole premise of this thread was that the EU had NEW rule(s) that effected it. So far, no NEW rule(s) have been related - only a 2012 ruling that has been indicated has already been investigated.
Basically much ado about nothing (other than wishful thinking on some folks part).

I guess people have different definitions of "new." Wait until you are as old as me

Well, after being on the earth over 1/2 a century, I don't consider 2 years new.

It seems this has been tested:

Now I see reference to a particular member it falls into place, said member is just trying to stir trouble once again.

Currently, XenForo licenses can only be transferred once. There is nothing more to add.
