    Is it allowed to share an xbox one account?

    I don't mean sharing gold

    I mean sharing the account himself

    You would just need to set another console as your home console.

    I would also reccomend changing the password on your account in case the person that you are currently game sharing with has his console set to automatically sign you profile in and he cant set his console as home console after you switch which console is
    your profiles home console.

    I don't mean to rain on the parade but i wouldn't post it here, it can be considered marketplace theft, and another person would have full access to your account at all times. In the future i would post stuff like this in the forums as its not good for your
    account and that goes for anyone in the future,

    Thanks Enen dude ^

    Yeah I think its design too. Its too open to not be intentional. Publishers IMO get plenty of money nowadays. I would never go out and pirate a game but at the same time I wouldn't go and spend twice the cost for the same object. I mean 2 x Destiny and 2
    x Expansion pass = shy of £155. That's too expensive for my liking. I am happy to move forward given the above sentence from the link. The fact they put a full stop and made it its own sentence "Everyone in your home can share digital games with each other."
    is good for me. There are no 'buts' or 'ifs'.

    Like I said though, if they change the rules or make them more dominant at least, then I will respect that but I agree that its something to be intentionally used but not exploited.

    Bingo: It's vague but precise enough for me.



    http://news.xbox.com/2013/08/xbox-one-digital-games-and-live-gold



    Everyone in your home can share digital games with each other. Your Xbox One can become your virtual game library filled with digital games that different people in the home bought. Anyone
    can pick any digital game on your Xbox One, sign in with their own gamertag and play – even if the owner is not signed in. Like physical media, you can also play many digitally downloaded games without being online, although experiences will be best when connected
    to the internet and Xbox Live. Finally, when you purchase a digital game, you can start playing even before the entire game downloads.



    That pretty much says to me that it's okay. The only difference is that we are sharing it at the same time, rather then in turn, which I am sure is absolutely fine. I cant find a shred of anything that goes against it, now if I was doing this across
    different buildings and not keeping it to my 'home' then that is a totally different kettle of fish though I think what I am doing is acceptable. If the ToU / CoC update to reflect otherwise, then I will desist. It does also say on that page that if you buy
    a game on a friends console then it will be readily available to the home console for anyone to use. So the scenario fits. Hope this helps ^

    Can you play the same game at the same time ? for example do you have one copy of Destiny ?

    Always wanted to know, did not realise you both had that setup :)
