MSDN Subscription Benefits
Now you can assign subscription benefits to be
divided among several licensed users.
Instead of assigning all the benefits of a single
subscription to a single user who may not need
them all the new system allows the MSDN
Administrator to pool benefits from multiple
subscriptions and efficiently distribute them
amongst new and existing users in your
organization. For example, media can be assigned
to one MSDN licensed employee, access to
technical support to another, and download access
to a third.
