How does the iLife family licence work?
Hi,
I am looking at buying iLife'08, as are two of my housemates. We were then thinking of getting the family pack and splitting the cost. But how does it work? What if one of us moves out? Does the licence still work? Is it all based off of the ip address of our internet connection? Or does it just mean that we can register that pack five times no matter where we all live?
Thanks.

The Family Pack Software License Agreement allows you to install and use one copy of the Apple Software on up to a maximum of five (5) Apple-labeled computers at a time as long as those computers are located in the same household and used by persons who occupy that same household. By ?household? we mean a person or persons sharing the same housing unit such as a home, apartment, mobile home or condominium. This license does not extend to students who reside at a separate on-campus location or to business or commercial users.
That being understood, there's not active enforcement.
Like me, Apple digs the honor system.
