Regarding pro account, DM'ing and CO-DM's

Hey gang!  Noobie here.  If I purchase the pro account will I be able to allow other to DM and me just a player?  I mean I know you can allow someone to be CO-DM, but does that mean I can just be a regular player?  I ask because I have found someone willing to DM(I have no desire to do so) but I will be purchasing the account and Lost Mine of Phandelver.  I just want to play lol...Thanks gang, I hope this makes sense...
Yup, very simple to do. Just click 're-enter as player' under your settings wheel once you are in the game.

Once you reenter as a player, you can bookmark the page and then you won't have to reenter as a player each time, you'll just log in as a player by default (when you go to the bookmark that is)

I thought Co-Dm's weren't able to do everything that the main one could?  This Post seems to indicate so anyways.

They can't do everything... but for purposes of running a game inside Roll20, they can do everything needed. They only have access t0o their art library however. That is not shared.
doesn't that mean the other Co-Dm account will need to buy "Lost Mine of Phandelver" in order to use the assets from it? or is that not how modules work?

The creator of the campaign loads a module on creation. The campaign then has all maps/assists needed to run the adventure, whether you're the creator or a co-GM. Co-GMs have access to the dynamic light layer, regardless of the subscription level, as long as the creator is plus/pro. Compendium access and marketplace asserts not preloaded with the campaign will only be available to the user who purchased the content as this is on a per user basis.
