What is Bloomberg Law anyway?

Users can access an exceptional dockets database that includes Federal docket materials which up until now was only available on PACER. More about Bloomberg Law-> http://about.bloomberglaw.com/ .
Are there any academic restrictions on using the Bloomberg Law password?
