This is more complex than past education licensing. The apps in the App Store could be developed by any developer anywhere in the world. I know some developers who would be VERY upset if Apple decided to deprive them of income by giving their apps to schools at any price other than the one they set per copy. Some would simply withdraw from developing educational apps if this were to happen. Past education licenses were based on negotiations with a small number of large companies. The nature of apps is that there are a large number of often small companies to be negotiated with, and the per-item cost is very low.<br>

Hi Julie and others,<br>
<br>
Doesn't that model of accounts contravene the terms and conditions of the app store? Surely we are not allowed to load 1 purchased app to 5 devices without paying for 5! I am intrigued about how schools are working around this limitation until apple release some sort of education licensing.<br>

<br>
We have done as you are planning...it takes a little bit of time to set up but it seems to be working well. I set up the email addresses and Apple IDs so I get an email when the students purchase an app using that account. At the moment 5 students share each account and I've given them a list of what they must download although they are allowed to discuss ideas for apps & download those they all agree on.<br>
