will I still be able to get it
YES, Comcast internet access is not required. In fact you will be able to logon from work or a coffee shop and get it there too. The key is using the same logon name you would use to access your bills or other stuff at comcast.com. If you are a customer of Comcast and subscribe to a cable TV pkg, you will get for free on your PC everything you can get on your TV. For example, if you get say HBO on your TV pkg, you can get HBO on the PC as well. But if you don't get HBO on TV, you won't get it on the PC either. Basically it will work like OnDemand, but on your PC instead of on the TV.

Will this only work with one user or can multiple users logon from various locations to access this content? If only one person can be logged on and access the videos, that might be inconvenient for some customers. If they do allow multiple users to access the content, anyone interested in splitting the cost of a Comcast TV service with me. I'd love to stream it all over my FiOS connection.

I have no idea. But, if it was me setting it up, it would be only 1 at a time to stop exactly what your are proposing. That is cheating the system.

It's certainly something to think about, and it might be something that is forced upon Comcast to adhere by, as this service is similar to SlingBox. The content providers probably will frown upon the redistribution of their precious commodities. SlingBox only allows one connection at a time, so I would assume that Comcast will have to follow similar rules.

it will be almost worthless for families or roommates that share Internet if only works with one account.
