What's the difference how many devices if you only listen on one at a time?

What difference does it make if I have deezer on my laptop, desktop (virtual), and phone and desktop (real) if I only use one at a time? It is only because Deezer broke its promise to have gapless play on the web/desktop app that this is necessary anyway, I can only listen to opera on my home stereo by installing a virtual android system on my laptop/desktop machines because the mobile app has gapless play.

Hello @dgoorevitch, 

If you have a Premium subscription you can link your account to up to 3 devices, 

but only listen to one at a time!

When will gapless play be in the desktop app so I don’t have to access it thru Bluestacks?

I absolutely agree with your question.

There is no reason why i cannot have infinite devices connected as i can only use one at a time.

I need two phones, my xbox, my google home device, my tablet, and i have 2 laptops and a desktop. luckily the laptops and desktop can use the web player BUT there is no actual reason why i cannot connect deezer to ALL my devices. I have been a deezer user for 22 years in one form or another and am now a premium account holder but this is just ridiculous. There should be NO limit as there is no need to have a limit except to have one for the sake of having one.

 

This needs fixing.

Why is this the “best answer”, since it clearly doesn’t answer the original question?

Hi

 

I have a Deezer family account, I would like to give one of my 6 profiles to my younger brother. How many devices can stream/listen at the same time?

This is not an answer to the original question. 

I also would like to know why is there a limit of three devices if you can only listen to one at the same time?

It's frustrating.

Hi @zx6dude,I totally get your point—it does seem a bit confusing, right?

The three-device limit is there mainly for security reasons and to keep things running smoothly.

Even though you can only listen on one device at a time, it helps you switch between them easily without any trouble.

Thanks for bringing it up!
