BRM is important for any level of *serious* winning player, recreational or professional, especially once beyond the lowest micro stakes.  Losing players, purely "entertainment" players, or players playing in the lowest penny stakes, don't really need to be concerned with BRM, although it's still a good habit to get into and practice even before you need to.

But some people confuse "bankroll" with what you have online at a given time.  That's not your bankroll.  Your true bankroll is however much you can afford to play with (and lose) across all sources, assuming you can access those funds for poker (i.e. deposit easily enough for online play).  If I keep $1000 online but have $100K in the bank and am willing to gamble/lose $20K, then my BR is $20K, not $1000.

Live or online it technically doesn't matter, nor does single tabling vs multi-tabling.  Multi-tabling doesn't particularly affect BRM considerations for a winning player.  Some people do like a little extra padding when massively multi-tabling, especially when first increasing tables and finding their true winrate because they'll likely suffer some early downswings, but once you're settled in and winning regularly it's no different than single table BRM.
