Sirius "Lifetime" service has Serious Issues

First pay $500 for the Sirius "lifetime" service agreement, and then discover the fine print that only the vendor could love:
Transfer Fee: If you wish to transfer your Subscription to a different Sirius Receiver during the term of a prepaid subscription or committed subscription period, we may charge you a transfer fee of up to $75.00. You may not transfer a lifetime Subscription to a different Sirius Receiver.

I predict Sirius lifetime service subscribers will go to extreme measures to keep their existing receivers alive.
