How many devices can you hook Netflix up to at one time?
Can you have multiple devices in multiple locations?

Well, I gave my password to Fab4 and if I am watching something...she cannot. We have ran into this problem recently.

You can have 6 set up on an account I believe.

I know I've been watching on the pc in the basement and my wife is watching something on the roku upstairs, but I'm guessing that's a different case than watching on 2 rokus, or a roku and a netflix ready blu ray player, etc.

If by differently locations you mean entirely different houses, I guess technically you could, not sure about the legality of it...

Certainly location has nothing to do with it. Otherwise they wouldn't make phone and tablet apps for it.

Yes. As long as you have a legit account, you can use that account on any device in any location. For example, my daughters use my account to watch Netflix on their PC in Pennsylvania and I use the same account to do the same on my PC in Tennessee.
