That is quite generous. The only reason I asked was that we don’t sleep at the same time five nights a week. I work graveyard shift. She’s being exposed two nights a week. She’s describing a sense that she’s “arguing” with whatever is on the sub. She’s getting enough to resist hard, but not enough to see any forward progress. It’s having some noticeable negative effects. Anyway, it’s moot, we’ve discussed it, and she doesn’t want to be on it regardless.
I am learning that my wife is very resistant to change in herself or anything in her environment, and that seems to include positive changes in me. It’s ok, I can’t force her. I can keep going and improving myself.
This is probably a silly question, but I assume she’d have to KNOW that I paid for a second copy for it to work. Is that right?

You can just leave it playing 24/7 in your bedroom. That will give you more than 5 loops of exposure at a time, but it would allow you both to be exposed without triggering copy protection, and because it is more exposure than 5 loops, it may work better against her resistance. That may or may not have an impact on how well it works for you to be getting that much exposure. I cannot know.

If you get a second copy, you or she would have to download that copy from the store for her, and if you did it, you would have to delete any copies of it in your possession, for her to be able to use it on her own. If she doesn't want to use it because she is fighting it and won't use it enough to get past that resistance to change, then getting another copy isn't going to do anyone any good. So your only option is to leave it playing 24/7 in your bedroom if you want her to be affected.

I suggest that on the one hand, playing it to her without her knowledge or consent isn't a good idea. On the other hand, if she refuses to grow with you, and you refuse to stagnate, there is a high likely hood that you will grow apart. I have been through that several times myself with ex's and seen it happen many times with others as well.

The rest is up to you.

EDIT: For this to work (24/7) you would have to use it in ultrasonic format, and you would want to use it at a moderate to moderately high (but not high) volume. Between 50 and 80% of the maximum usable volume.
