    摘要: A system and method for controlling access to digital content, including streaming media. The system includes a web server, media server and end user processor, such as a personal computer, coupled to a network. The web server cryptographically generates a ticket in response to an end user's request for access to a file. The ticket is based, at least in part, on a time at or near when the ticket is generated. The media server generates an authorization ticket, preferably using the same cryptographic algorithm as the web server. The media server authorization ticket is based, at least in part, on a time at or near when the media server receives the request for access to the file. The media server determines whether to grant access to the file by comparing the ticket, as generated by the web server, to the ticket, as generated by the media server.

    摘要: A method for delivering streaming media files to a plurality of end users from a streaming media delivery system including a filer for storing the media files and a streaming server for serving the media files generally includes the steps of monitoring demand for the streaming media files, identifying at least one of the streaming media files to be cached when demand for the at least one of the streaming media files reaches a pre-defined threshold, copying the streaming media file to a streaming server from a media storage device, and streaming the streaming media file using the copy stored locally on the streaming server.
