That means you'd never be able to upgrade your box. If your box broke you'd be hosed too.
Imagine how far VCRs would have gone if the tapes were tied to a specific unit.
I'd be slightly more comfortable if it was tied to a user name or something so they'd at least be portable within your home or to a new box. I suppose everyone on the planet could agree to set it to the same thing but how likely is that?
