Description
The present invention relates to a content licensing system and method, and more particularly, to set up primary licensing for granting all rights necessary for use of content to a first purchaser who purchases digital content from an original provider, and digital content from the first purchaser. The present invention relates to a content licensing system and method for setting up staged licensing for digital content in a manner that sets up secondary licensing that grants some limited rights to a second purchaser.
Recently, digital services that sell digital contents such as digital music, images, videos, books, and games through networks have become commonplace. To protect such commercial digital intellectual property rights and avoid digital infringement, digital rights management (DRM) systems that can be used to prevent unauthorized access to digital content and to manage digital content usage rights are required. Do.
The key concept in DRM is the use of digital licenses. A license is a digital data file containing Content Decryption Keys and Contents Usage Rules. In other words, the license refers to data that contains the decryption key used to decrypt the encrypted content and the contents specifying the right to use (number, duration) of the content. In addition, metadata (meta data) refers to data that describes the data, for example, data that contains a description of the content. A packager is a device that performs a series of tasks by encrypting content using an encryption key and attaching a header containing a URL for obtaining a license and information on a commerce vendor. Clearing House is a system that performs license issuance, statistical function, billing, financial settlement and settlement to solve encrypted contents by packager, and plays a key role of DRM system.
In DRM, a user purchases a license that grants certain rights to access the content, rather than purchasing the content directly. The terms of use specify how the content should be used, such as copy permission, pay-per-view, weekly rental, and so on. Licenses can be described using a language that represents copyright, such as eXtensible rights Markup Language (XrML), which has been selected by the Video Experts Group (MPEG) for the MPEG-21 multimedia framework. have.
In DRM implementations, encrypted content may be supplied via any communication medium, such as client / server systems, super-distribution, digital audio / video broadcasts, but does not possess a valid license. Unless you can decrypt the content. Thus, protected content can be supplied regardless of any license. More specifically, when the user attempts to consume the protected content, the player device checks if there is a valid license for the content on the user device. If the player device does not find a license, the player device denies access to the content and informs the user that he needs to connect to the license server to obtain a valid license. After you provide the fee and / or information that may be required to obtain a license, the license will be transferred to your device, and the protected content may be decrypted and used in accordance with the terms or conditions of use within the license. have.
By the way, when selling digital content to a user, all of the digital content may be used in some cases, but only part of it may be used. However, most rights are granted to use all of the digital content when selling digital content.
For example, if you sell digital content about selling or renting a property, you can give all rights to the content that sells the house, but you can rent or rent the house after purchasing the content. In the case of selling content related to the content, etc., it is necessary to grant only some limited rights without having to grant all rights.
