[QUOTE="EldarOfSuburbia, post: 160981, member: 4106"] Steam allows you to share your games with other authorized users and devices. This means I can set up a family-friendly Steam account for my daughter, and she can use that login to play only games I deem okay for her, and she's blocked from making purchases and other stuff I don't want her doing. Or my wife can have her own Steam login on her MacBook and play games registered to my account that come with a Mac version. Only trouble is, TPA DLC is locked to the Steam account. So while my daughter can run TPA, the only table she has full access to is TOTAN. Is there any way that this can be overcome? I don't believe Steam allows two users to play the same game, registered to the same user, on two different devices at the same time - heck it doesn't allow the same user to be logged in on two separate devices at the same time. So I don't believe that there is a licensing problem with allowing this to happen. [/QUOTE]
