The relay terminal is received from the user terminal The user terminal of the home network may transmit the content permission request and the content providing request to the content providing server.
In addition, the second aspect of the present invention comprises the steps of receiving a usage right request of the content for the user terminal from the user terminal of the home network, transmitting the received usage right request to the content providing server, the content providing server Receiving content usage right information generated based on the usage right request by the terminal, and transmitting the received content use right information to the user terminal, providing content corresponding to the content use right information from the user terminal; Receiving a request, transmitting the received providing request to the content providing server, receiving content data corresponding to the providing request from the content providing server, and transmitting the received content data to the user terminal. And the user terminal comprises the cone Flats may be used to provide the credential and method for providing the home network of the relay terminal can be to play the content based on the content data.
In addition, the third aspect of the present invention is a terminal pairing unit for performing a pairing (paring) between one or more terminals of the home network and the relay terminal, the content usage rights request received from at least one user terminal of the one or more terminals; A content usage rights management unit configured to transmit to the content providing server and to receive the content usage right information generated based on the content usage right request from the content providing server and to the user terminal, and to the content usage right information from the user terminal. Receives a content providing request generated on the basis of the content, and transmits the received content providing request to the content providing server, and the content data received from the content providing server based on the content providing request to the user terminal Including a management unit, the The user terminal may provide a relay terminal of a content providing system for providing content to the user terminal, which is to play content corresponding to the content providing request based on the content data.
According to the above-described problem solving means of the present invention, each of the one or more user terminals in the home network receives the respective content usage rights information and content data from the content providing server through the set-top box of the same home network, respectively, and use the received content Since the content is reproduced by using the authority information and the content data, a plurality of terminals in the home network may play different contents so that a plurality of users in the home network may receive different contents.
