I don't know how M$ defines a family member though in this case. Can it be anyone?

Nope, MS will use the Kinect to spy on you and make sure that the person playing is actually your family member. 

Why didn't I think of that? That Kinect is obviously equipped with the tech to able to genetically check for any immediate family members playing the game lol.

Anyway, on a serious note if it was house specific then I could see them letting this sharing feature be IP locked for as many Xbones in one house, but if it can be anywhere, then I guess you could share it with anyone.

But to be honest that much should kind of be a given. Right now I can give my game disc to as many family members or friends or random people (if I chose to) for as long as I want. They are putting a cap of 10 to that but making it convenient for them to play by letting them have a digital copy and not a disc. This is of course assuming family members are just any random people you choose, which may very well not be true. But we will see.

So in this aspect I would say they are in the neutral zone. You are putting a cap for more convenience and for one other family member to be able to play your game at the same time.
