Just to add my 2ยข, I agree with others, Anti-competitive, not Net Neutrality.
The part I don't like is forcing content through Comcast's platform. I'm still a little sore at them for not providing PAC12 sports Network to customers on the much of the East Coast. And even if the did, you have to access online streams through Comcast while every other Cable Company just authenticates and then lets the stream come direct from the PAC12 Network webpage.
Yes, it appears every device needs to be approved and registered. Looking at the help page for the XFinity TV Go App, a Comcast customer is allowed up to 3 simultaneous streams. I haven't looked at the HBOGo app in a while, but I see references to authorize devices in their Help page also. I assume this is their way of blocking you from giving your password out to multiple friends.
And it's not just for devices behind your router, I can access streaming content from either XFinity GO or HBO GO from anywhere.
