installing apps on multiple machines

[clapperboy]

It's not quite clear in the user agreement what's allowed in terms of installing an app from the AppStore on multiple machines.

"...you are granted a limited non-transferable license to install and use the Apple software only on Apple-branded computers that you own or control..."

I'd like to install Aperture on my MacPro and MacBook. What do you think, will I need two licenses?

The agreement refers to the iTunes/Appstore/iBooks usage rules, which state: (ii) You shall be authorized to use Products on five Apple-authorized devices at any time, except for Content Rentals (see below).

So maybe I've answered my own question...

Yes, you can use any of the App Store apps on all the computers you own (there's some debate about whether the 5-computer limit applies as it's tied to the Apple ID like iTunes, but it's not in the Terms and Conditions, so suspect maybe not).
