Unclear about VMware impact 2006-10-30

I'm curious how the "1 transfer" law works when you've bought SuperDuper Windows (the most pricey one). Can you install two VMs per license purchased, perhaps you can only move a VM to another VMware-host once? I'm not a lawyer so it's pointless for me to try to grok the license - but I do wonder... Inquiring minds and all that.
Offhand, I'd think that VMware ESX server's Vmotion would be a mega-naughty. Hmmm.
