What's NI's policy on license transfers? One time like Akai, or unlimited? Payment required?

MPC-Tutor wrote:Okay for people who may be interested, I just read the EULA from the installer, so here's the answers to some of my questions:
1) One time transfer is permitted, but only for the person who originally bought the Ren. So if you buy second hand yourself, a) assume you cannot transfer the license to anyone else (i.e. you cannot resell that Ren), and b) make sure the person you are buying from was the original hardware purchaser - this is going to make second hand sales somewhat risky, because you'll really want them to transfer to you first before you pay. It would be good if there's a way to get confirmation direct from Akai - i.e. a system which confirms if a license has been previously transferred.
Now whether Akai will strictly enforce this I do not know, but if they do, this is going to hamper the second hand value of the Ren.

But daws such as live, logic , cubase operate on the same principle. Seems a lot of us are just getting started with software sequencers.
