Every time I see this, it kind of baffles me a little that someone would think "just share your account" is a good solution. What do you do if there is a change in the household and someone moves out or someone new moves in? There are credit cards involved with practically every single eReader account out there right now, and to share that information with three different people (some of them perhaps a bit too young to understand why paranoia is a virtue in this day and age of identity theft?) is a very good way to ensure that your credit card company tells you "too bad, should have been more careful" when your credit card information becomes compromised.
And that hasn't even begun to touch the more sticky issue of whether parents would want their children, or even their spouse, to have full access to all the books they read. Very few books written for adults are appropriate for all ages.
