摘要： Techniques enable seamless movement and consumption of licensed digital content amongst multiple devices. In some embodiments, these techniques allow establishment of a domain capable of having multiple member devices. Each member device of the domain typically comprises a content-consuming device such as a personal computer, a portable media player, or the like. These techniques enable a license associated with digital content to bind to a domain rather than an individual device. As such, each member device of the domain may contain a domain identity and, with the identity, may consume the content with use of the license and in accordance with policy described in the license. These tools may also enable a member device to join multiple domains and to contain an identification of each of these multiple domains.
