    dlc licenses

    does every dlc have its own license?

    If i bought a new xbox and used the license transfer feature to move the licenses for my account's dlc to the new xbox, then went on the old xbox and bought a new dlc, which xbox is the license of that new dlc on?

    All DLC comes with two licenses. A console license, and an account license. If your friend purchased the DLC from that console, you can still play it without doing a license transfer.

  5. How ever if your friend buys a new console and license transfers his licences back you will loose access

  6. No, you can not. It's a violation to share Live accounts and the second you register with your Live account, those licenses will be lost since they're associated with your friend's Live account.

    .

    Watch it, too, because as others have said, the second he licenses his new system, you lose access to your system until you create a new Live account.

    ^^ I *think* the OP is stating he has already created an account on this used Xbox. He/She currently has access to the DLC that was previously downloaded on the console, but as others have mentioned, once the previous owner does a license transfer, the
    DLC will no longer be available to the new account.

    .

    Also, you cannot transfer the license to your new account. Licenses are tied to a console and a gamertag.

    Lisence Transfer question

    Each digital game comes with a dual license, an Xbox license and a User license. The home Xbox uses the Xbox license and the Friend/family uses the User License. Ms wanted you to be able to play your games at a Friends house, this is why it exists. Op, Go
    for it
