Naturally, there are steps being taken to try and stop or at least reduce the prevalence of password-sharing. Currently, many pay-TV services only require consumers to deal with re-entering passwords into devices once per year. That may change, as some companies are reportedly considering finding ways to restrict the number of concurrent streams from one account on apps, as well as require subscribers to log in more often. ESPN has already taken such steps, reducing the number of allowable simultaneous streams to five and may even cut it down to three, which is a big drop from the original ten allowable simultaneous streams.
