摘要:
To provide an information recording medium and an information processing apparatus and method in which the content usage by ensuring copyright protection can be implemented both in CD players and information processing apparatuses, for example, PCs. A license providing condition for a client can be dynamically set based on the content usage status of the client. For example, for clients having a large number of content usages, the license price is decreased, or the license can be provided free. A media ID stored in, for example, a CD, and a product ID as an identifier in, for example, a title unit or an album unit are received from the client. Based on such identification data, the content usage status data can be checked. Accordingly, the licenses can be provided under the reliable management of the content usage.

摘要:
A signal transmission method applicable to prevention of modification or alteration of the playback mode information, such as copying management information or charging information. The playback mode information form a terminal 15P is data-converted for ciphering by a playback mode information appendage circuit 14 in a header appendage circuit 13 responsive to the key information from a terminal 15K and the resulting information comprised of the data and the playback mode information is outputted. The reproducing side effects data conversion on the ciphered playback mode information for deciphering, by a playback mode information detection circuit 26 in a header separation circuit 25, using the key information from a terminal 27K, for taking out the original playback mode information at a terminal 27P.

摘要:
A data transmitting method for preventing direct copying of digital bi-level signals. When processing input digital data from an input terminal 11 by circuits 13 to 16, modulating the data by a modulation circuit 17 and appending synchronization signals by a synchronization appendage circuit 18, the synchronization signals are appended using a synchronization format which is different from the synchronization format conforming to the standard and which is usually not used. For example, the synchronization pattern different from the regular synchronization pattern may be used, or the synchronization signal may be inserted at a position different from the regular position. If attempts are made for direct copying of the digital bi-level signal having such synchronization format, synchronization may be disengaged, for example, thus obstructing and prohibiting duplication.
摘要:
An optical disk D is composed of a first recording layer L.sub.1 and a second recording layer L.sub.2 each for two recording formats. Encrypted data is recorded on the first recording layer L.sub.1. Encrypting key data is recorded on the second recording layer L.sub.2. The encrypting key data is used for decoding the encrypted data. This recording makes easy reproduction of the recorded data quite difficult. If data recorded on a bit-formed portion may be reproduced by any means, the data signal recorded on the optical disk cannot be easily reproduced.
摘要:
An input is ciphered in at least one of a sector forming circuit 13, a scrambling circuit 14, a header appendage circuit 15, an error correction encoding circuit 16, a modulation circuit 17 and a synchronization appendage circuit 18, used for processing input data for forming a recording signal. Not only key for ciphering itself in the circuits but also the information as to which of the circuits has been used for ciphering becomes the key for ciphering. This realizes ciphering difficult to decode by a simplified structure.
