My understanding is that streaming service recognize the device being used and allow mobile devices from different locations, but not necessarily devices running televisions? I think it is to prevent people from giving out their password to friends/family instead of them signing up for the service. We aren’t intending on stealing the service, we just want to be able to use it at both of our homes. I’m not sure how this works as we are just venturing into the world of cutting the cord and none of the streaming services have customer service representatives that you can actually talk to. Very frustrating trying to make an informed decision without being able to get the necessary information without trial and error.
