If I pay for the service, I reserve the right to authorize who I see fit to use my credentials.

It's not like I'm charging them a subscription fee.

*THREAD HIJACK*

Speaking of netflix, is there some way to disable the auto-play thing it does? I can't land on a show for one friggin second before it starts either playing a preview or sometimes will just launch right into starting it. It's annoying as shite.

That's bullshite. Try doing that with Hulu and see how quickly they slap you down.

Not sure how "new" this software is, since the companies already have the ability to limit the number of remote users for each account.

Agree.

Not like you can stream more than your allotted amount.

Guess this is to put some equation together to show how many times users on the same account log each other off due to the exceeding allotted amount. This can then give you a number of "account overload" which means possible lost subs.

Right. It would be like Cox Cable not allowing people who don't pay the bill to view the TV at my house. Or Barnes and Noble not letting me lend books to friends.
