The is illegal in europe. If they sell to EU countries and try to enforce that they're gonna have a problem. https://curia.europa.eu/jcms/upload/docs/application/pdf/2012-07/cp120094en.pdf

There is nothing in the agreement preventing the resale of the license, but the original purchaser is the only one recorded with limetech.

 

The OP asked about changing the name on the license.

 

Is there a legal requirement in Europe that the vendor change their records to subsequent owners?

No, but if I sold my license and that became tied to my account (how it looks like the "my servers" plugin is going to end up at) unraid (aka limetech) will have to either recognize the possibility of an unraid license changing accounts or give the ability to giveaway my account to someone without any repercussions. They don't have to register the new owner, but they can't deny him any functions based on him buying second hand (even if that means having to sell my forum account in conjunction with the license).

First IANAL but the link to the EU ruling peaked my curiosity.   While the ruling covered the sale of the license to a 3rd party, I believe the ruling didn’t cover transferring "support and maintenance".

 

So in the Unraid case, it is possible that replacement license keys and upgrade rights do not transfer to the 3rd party purchaser.

Oracle, and in regards to this question Unraid, has no obligation to the 3rd party purchaser to provide replacement keys (or anything else) - doubly so if they don't have operations in the EU (who would you sue?). Oracle let the cat out of that particular bag by taking action against a company within the jurisdiction of the EU court, here you'd just be pissin' up a rope.
