And it makes no sense, if it's an app that both of us want, to have to buy it twice just so he has a separate account. I can't imagine what a mess this will be if we ever have kids and they too have devices! What a hassle.
As long as combined you are under 11 devices, you can have them all auto download. You could both have a computer, an iPhone, an iPad, and a Touch, all on one account (8 total) and still have 2 more Apple products to spare for your kids!

We share apps and music across 3 people with no problem-you'll be fine
