Yeah, I won't bite at $261...
Might jump on this. Been waiting since allowing mine to lapse and I was kicking myself for not renewing when I could have renewed for a little over $100.
and those $0.99 W7 ultimate keys for sale on ebay.. are they from technet?

you don't even need to look hard. just search "windows 7 keys" on ebay

from $0.01, some BIN from $20. Even the ones selling for $70 seem shady to me. Check the buyer feedback and completed auctions.. seem to be positive/legit keys.
If you use it in an inappropriate manner than the TOS allows, it's still not "legit".
Nonsense.
so basically, you feel you can do whatever you want no matter what their tos or eula says? good luck with that.
The subscriptions are per year.
so if you sign up and install applications/OS whatever do they expire one the subscription ends?
Come 1 year, will you get a message to the effect of
"Sorry to continue to use this program you must sign-up for another year of technet"?
Jimbo the thing is they do expire per se. They are not supposed to be used past that one year. If you continue to do so you're in direct conflict of the EULA. Sure if you continue to use it you will be able to but in reality, if you can afford it, you should renew your TechNet sub. That's what I did. On top of that, you continue to get access to newly released software.No, they are good forever and do not expire. Just make sure you get and download all of the keys you are entitled to during that year as you will not be able to access them after your subscription expires.
