@Jeremy: I would be wary of allowing any software licensed annually to be hosted on another server. Apps licensed in this way tend to be more like an SAAS app and as such would be centrally stored to allow for maintenance, upgrades etc.
If it is a plugin that we're talking about then the license tends to get you a period of support and access to upgrades, so to let your license expires means you can continue to use the plugin without upgrades/fixes. Have you ever, or no of anyone else, who has bought code where you had to decrypt it (try finding a shared hosting service that has ioncube/ zend guard installed)? Maybe you could have a call from the remote server to a database on your server which checked if a license is valid?
