How does Steam Sharing work?
Steam Sharing, or as it's officially known, Steam Family Sharing, lets you share your game library with family and close friends. Here's the deal: You authorize another person's computer to access your games. They can then download and play these games with their own Steam account. Just remember, only one person can access the library at a time, so if you're planning to play at the same time, you're out of luck.

Actually, I've shared my library with my brother. It's great for single-player games we both want to play. Just had to log in on his PC once to authorize it, and that was it. Easy peasy.
You can't play the same game at the same time if you're sharing. So if you're thinking of co-op or multiplayer with one purchase, think again.
