Hello! I am a dm in one campaign and a player in another and I've bought all of our content for the party. One of my players wishes to buy a sourcebook for the campaign but wishes to hold ownership as he wants to dm one day too. Is content sharing within a campaign 2 ways or is it just dm to players?
The DM can choose to block a sourcebook from sharing. It will not block the options like spells/classes/races/magic items from being selectable for the characters, but it will block people from being able to read the book (unless they buy it too) that way you can avoid spoilers for your friend.
So I have master tier but the player does not, if the player buys the sourcebook he will not be able to share it?
He will not, but if he is in a campaign with you, and you activate content sharing, then his book will automatically get shared too.
It does not matter who is the DM, who has the subscription, or who owns the books. Once content sharing has been enabled, everybody’s content gets shared for free.

As long as anyone has access to the Master Tier subscription (whether it be DM or player) all content between the users of that campaign is shared.
