All I have to contribute is this: Once I found out that a service that 
might interest me was going through this much trouble to prevent users 
from "sharing" an account would definitely make me lose interest 
immediately. Not that I would want to share the account, but I would 
decline on principal. If you don't trust me then I don't want anything 
to do with your service. Just create a clear terms of service agreement, 
which allows me to decide wether to sign up or not. That's how the big 
guys do it, and it tends to work out pretty well.

I also agree that if the site has compelling reasons to sign up, then 
I'd want to have my own account anyway.

Just some food for thought.
