Remember it is "Product Lifetime".  The lifetime sub is tied to the
TSN of the unit.  So if you sell a unit with lifetime to another
person the lifetime sub will transfer to them when they activate it on
their account.  I've sold four units with lifetime over the years
myself.

What you can't do is transfer lifetime from one TiVo to another TiVo,
unless it is through one of the special offers TiVo has done from time
to time, usually with the launch of a new unit.
