Dish Anywhere on 5 devices?

[scoob83]

Probably late to the party, but I just noticed Dish Anywhere is available on 5 devices simultaneously now. Am I reading this correctly? When did it change from just one device?


More Devices to Stream on the Go

Now the entire family can watch whatever they want with streaming TV available on up to 5 devices at once, included in your subscription at no extra cost.

I found this additional info on the Dish Anywhere site. What is the difference between Live Streaming and Live Satellite? Thinking maybe if a channel is offered for Signal Protector that might be "live streaming"?

Live satellite uses your actual receiver at your house. It will use up one if the built in tuners then send it over the internet to you.

Live streaming comes from a server/computer that has the program ready to go in storage.

My wife was out of state last week & was using Dish Anywhere watching a recording. I was at home and tried to watch the same recording. My wife got kicked off.
