It may be a problem when one wants to let his children watch the movie
without giving them any access to the account.

Right.

It's not the device I choose but the device (software) the provider
permits. And it's always a device not being under my complete control.
I consider such an approach not only inconvenient (I might manage that,
nothing is perfect) but also intrusive and I can't completely trust the
provider under such conditions. The problem with EME is I can't trust
W3C either when it officially promotes such a behavior by making it a
part of its standards, thus making me a second-class Web citizen at
best.
