The card will always belong to sky, but many sell them as FTV cards.. Also Sky boxes belong to the customer so can be legally sold on.

I presume what you want to do is to buy another Sky+ box and replace the normal sky box... In that case you should be able to just swap round the boxes, insert your own card and just inform Sky (they might charge you for the SKY+ features) but as long as the box/card isn;t stolen then you should be OK..
