Message: <blockquote data-quote="IronWolf" data-source="post: 5217730" data-attributes="member: 21076">I don't think they've (Wizards) come outright and stated their stance on this at least based on some web searches to see if they have - I could not find any.  Though there are lots of discussions as to the rightness and wrongness of it and whether Wizards is okay with it.The five updates some say are simply because they are aware people are more connected and might have multiple machines at home, which can eat up a couple of instances.  I know if I were a DDI user I would likely have at least three machines I would install it on.  Some also say the number is so high to also allow for corrected updates to be rolled out in any given month.I only viewed the ToS on the main signup page, but there are mentions in there of not sharing the password for the account that is used for wizard's services and that the person who signed up is responsible for the security of the password and what happens under that password.I am not a lawyer and have really only made a few web searches and reviewed the ToS briefly, but it looks like if they wanted to enforce one user per DDI account they could simply by enforcing the section that talks about not sharing your password.  So I think they have left the door open to enforce if they see the need without making changes in their ToS.And this is quite possibly the case - they have chosen not to enforce that as it is working well for them not to.  It gets people to try it out under their "group" subscription which eventually leads to more people signing up for their own subscription.</blockquote>
