License Transfer Question

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I have a question about transferring licenses for content on Xbox Live.

If I were to receive the license for a DLC (namely BF3 Premium), would the donating party still keep the content?

(Cock-knockin' EA charging fitty dollas...)

Much obliged,

I did it to receive Minecraft. Since this is BF3 premium however, I doubt it'll work because your donating party connected his Xbox account to the premium, not yours and it is only valid for 1 account.

Also don't license transfer more than once between a few months to a year or so because I had a friend who had his account suspended twice (two different accounts) for doing it twice in a short amount of time.

Edit: Qd, when you purchase content, you receive a license to use that content. The license has two parts: the system license and the local license. The system license applies to the gamertag that purchases the content, and the local license applies to the console where you first downloaded the content.

I remember when I used to do this on PS3, it was so much simpler and you could do it X amount of times without getting caught. That's how I got a lot of stuff for free, then when I bought something I returned the favor to my friend, no questions asked.

With Minecraft though, does it not allow you to play multiplayer when the donated player is on at the same time? That's how it works on the PC version anyway.
