AFAIK, that is exactly the case. If there are any exceptions, I have not 
heard of them. CAMs that I have tried didn't even allow multiple stream 
decryption.

Perhaps the new USB port CI models, like Hauppauge's WinTV-CI, can be 
used with several cards at the same time? Although the support for them 
on Linux side is unknown to me.
