Declined Multiple licenses on one server

[bbtf69 1]

Wondering if this has been proposed already but I am happy to continue running multiple servers with different license keys but could it be changed so that one server could support adding more than one license key? When device slots fill up on one, Then roll over new devices to another premiere key? I personally don’t mind buying more lifetime licenses I would just appreciate if it was more convenient to use them!

It's not possible to run more than one license on a single server. Since the one-time payment option for additional users was removed, the only way to extend the number of users without monthly payments is to run multiple server instances with multiple lifetime licenses. 

I really wish Emby would bring back the one-time payment for more users. I wish I would have purchased that option when it was available even thought I didn't need it.

I’m aware it’s not currently a feature that’s why I put it in feature requests

I can only assume share-sellers would have a field day with that one...

Why would they implement this?

You're already bypassing the device limit they have intentionally imposed. They're not going to make that easier for you... If they had wanted to do that, they either wouldn't have removed the (permanent) option to buy more slots, or they'd have increased the base limit.

Excuse me, Mr. Police officer? Can you please stop casing that drug house so I can go buy drugs in peace?

No. Obviously.

I’d assume the device limit is so that they can monetize for their platform, if their goal is to make money then why not make it easier for more licenses to be used?

The limit actually exists to try and make it harder to illegally use the platform.

Just as a reminder, your license is for personal use.
