Unreasonable security restrictions?
-
A program I listen to uses WordPress for distribution (warroom.com). The only content on the broadcast is a three-hour radio show each weekday; archives and a continuous replay of the most recent program are also available. Until recently I listened to the program on a tablet downstairs in my office while my wife listened to it upstairs via her phone while she readied for work. Not long ago, WordPress seems to have instituted a security restriction preventing two devices from logging into the program. Now one of us can listen, or the other can listen – but we can’t listen at the same time and actually talk about the program together.
We pay $4.99 per month for this program. By comparison, PureFlix is $7.99 a month for multiple devices and hundreds of movies, and NetFlix is $11.99 for multiple devices and hundreds of thousands of hour of content.
Can you tell me in what universe it makes sense to tell a paying customer to pay twice to listen to a program on two floors of the same house? I’m dying to know.

It sure would be nice to be able to edit the question above, because this question does NOT involve my blog and I did NOT include that line at the end. I’m writing as a paying customer of a program hosted by WordPress.

Hi there,
WordPress is free and open source software developed by thousands around the globe. Anyone can use and customize the WordPress software to meet there needs. This is what the developers of warroom.com have done while creating their site. They are using the WordPress software from WordPress.org to create their site.
The team at WordPress.com and the community at WordPress.org do not create, write, profit from, or moderate the content of that site. If you’d like to ask the site owners to modify their business models you will need to reach out to them directly.
