Q: Multiple purchases necessary?

For Compressor 4.x. distributed processing on multiple machines, does one have to buy a compressor per machine?

Thanks.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10), 15-inch early 2013

    Thx studio x, that I figured. But on the LAN not all macs are with my account. So, unlike the Qmaster days, it's what I thought, every Apple ID, even if working on one job, needs its own compressor purchase...

    In the license agreement, Apple refers to computers that are owned or controlled by the purchaser. Then they provide a few examples.

     

    (ii) if you are a commercial enterprise or educational institution, to download, install, use and run one (1) copy of the Apple Software for use either: (a) by a single individual on each of the Mac Computer(s) that you own or control, or (b) by multiple individuals on a single shared Mac Computer that you own or control. For example, a single employee may use the Apple Software on both the employee’s desktop Mac Computer and laptop Mac Computer, or multiple students may serially use the Apple Software on a single Mac Computer located at a resource center or library.
