摘要:
When a secure counter malfunction detection unit 212 deters a malfunction in a secure counter 211, a content playability judgment unit 206 performs a content playability judgment based on information managed by a malfunctioning-state playback processing management unit 214. The malfunctioning-state playback processing management unit 214 stores a malfunctioning-state playback condition composed of information such as a playback count and a playback time. The content playability judgment unit 206 judges that content is playable when the malfunctioning-state playback condition is met, and a content playback unit 210 splays the content.

A contents using device (or a terminal device) 300 is composed of: a license processing unit 305 which judges, on the basis of a usage rule of a license, whether or not the content is available; a content reproduction unit 304 which uses the content judged by the terminal device 300 to be available; a restriction unit (or a content reproduction unit 304) which restricts the license corresponding to the contents from being used by another source by reason that the license is currently in use, for a time period between a start and a normal end of the content usage by the content reproduction unit 304; an event detection unit 307 which detects a predetermined event that occurs between the start and the normal end of the content usage and that forcefully aborts the content usage; a restriction-relaxation necessity judgment unit (or a recovery/penalty judgment unit) 309 which judges whether or not the predetermined event is against an intention of a user; and a restriction relaxation unit (or a license recovery unit) 306 which relaxes the restriction on the content usage when the recovery/penalty judgment unit 309 judges that the predetermined event is against the intention of the user.

摘要:
A content playback apparatus reduces load concentration on a specific server apparatus that manages content keys of encrypted content, while protecting copyrights of the content. The content apparatus makes playback of content recorded in a recording medium sold possible after the specific server breaks down. A key acquisition control unit (204) reads a playback control information table (211) from a recording medium (102) via a reading unit (201). The key acquisition unit (204) acquires a rights key via a key acquisition intermediation unit (223) from an apparatus specified by an acquisition-destination type and a request-destination type that are stored in the playback control information table (211) and that corresponding to the content to be played. The key acquisition unit (204) generates a content key using the acquired rights key and, when required, a medium key recorded in a medium. A decryption unit (203) decrypts encrypted content using the content key.

摘要:
A content usage management system includes a terminal device using content as digital production and a server device managing usage of the content on the terminal device. The server device includes a license information memory unit that memorizes license information indicating a usage rule of the content based on a user of the terminal device, and a license ticket issuance unit that generates a license ticket as right information indicating a part or all of a usage rule on the license information corresponding to the user based on a request from the user. The terminal device includes a requesting unit that requests usage of the content to the server device according to the user's designation, a receiving unit that receives the license ticket sent from the server device, and a content usage control unit that controls usage of the content according to the usage rule indicated on the received license ticket. The requesting unit makes a request by sending expected information indicating content to be requested and a usage volume of the content, and the license ticket issuance unit generates a license ticket according to the expected information sent from the requesting unit and sends the license ticket to the terminal device.
摘要:
Providing a data structure appropriate for performing rights management for multimedia-type contents, and further providing a recording medium containing data with the data structure, and a reproduction device and a reproduction method for reproducing the data. The present invention is a computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon license data for permitting a computer to use contents data comprising a plurality of resources, the license data including a resource-based use condition configuration structure, in which a use condition is set for the computer with respect to each of resources.
摘要:
The content distribution system according to the present invention is comprised of: a server device and a terminal device, the server device providing the terminal device with a license for using a content based on transaction processes, each including receiving of a request message, sending of a response message, and receiving of a commit message for finalizing completion of a transaction, and the terminal device controlling use of the content based on the license obtained from the server device, wherein the terminal device includes: a holding unit that holds a 1-bit transaction identification flag indicating whether a current transaction process is in progress or completed; and a sending unit that sends the transaction identification bit instead of an omitted commit message when sending a second or later request message, without sending a commit message in each transaction process except for a last transaction process in successive transaction processes, and the server device includes: a receiving unit that receives the transaction identification flag that is sent together with the second or later request message in the successive transaction processes; and a judgment unit that judges whether or not completion of one transaction should be finalized based on the received transaction identification flag.
