Thanks in advance.

"MAGIX allows for 2 installs on 2 systems.---the MAGIX applications allows 2 at any one given time and actually has a safeguard in place. Licenses can be maintained on the user's MAGIX account. If 2 installs exist, and the user wants to install to a third PC they have to deactivate from one of the other PCs."

See also point 9 here.

Sorry to bother you, there is just one thing I am trying to understand from point 9 it does state "which permits use on multiple computers by one user; " but does this mean my brother and I can't share the same product key and that I am the one user or does it mean one user on the computer no matter who that user is?

I guess that depends on how they check it's not your brother (or whoever) that's using MAGIX VEGAS simultaneously?

Better read "owner" instead of "user". Ofcourse you can install and register your copy of VMS14 on your and your brother's computer. But both copies registered with your accountname only. VMS14 doesn't recognize who actually uses VMS14.
