Nonsense, Apple. You don't expect my wife and I to have different Apple
IDs so that we have to buy each iOS app, each movie, each song twice.
That's why you let us share content on five Macs with the same Apple
ID, regardless of the administrator ID of the Mac user.

Except in the home, as noted above. And intended or not, it could work
as a five-machine site license so long as the password was changed
every time someone left the group.
