Has any lifetime account for anything ever lasted for an actual lifetime? Short of the gold airline tickets that airlines have been weaseling out of recently?
It's a tech company. I'd charitably assume that "lifetime" means min(how long has the company been offering this service, 5 years (3 if company took VC funding)).

I think most lifetime accounts end up lasting an entire lifetime. It just happens to almost always be about the lifetime of the service, not the lifetime of a human.

- mattl 2y agoI’ve had a lifetime subscription to 2600 Magazine for well over 25 years and I paid $260 for it.
- cudgy 2y agoTo continue the pedantic … $260 invested 25 years ago for 2600 magazine would be ironically worth around $2600 today.
