    摘要: A content server system is provided that includes at least one processor configured to store a user account for a user at a content server of the content server system that is configured to serve server-side rendered content to a client computing device of the user. Audio is played out via a sound output device associated with the client computing device. The at least one processor is further configured to determine a licensing identifier associated with a device of the user or the user account of the user, send the licensing identifier to a third-party licensing server device, receive an indication that an active license is associated with the licensing identifier, determine that the user is authorized to access a digital rights managed audio rendering software, and cause audio of the server-side rendered content to be rendered using audio rendering algorithms of the digital rights managed audio rendering software.

    摘要: Systems for creating and distributing digital rights management (DRM)-unlocking non-fungible tokens (NFTs) associated with DRM-encrypted video content. One embodiment system enables users to purchase, own, and access video content through the ownership of DRM-unlocking NFTs. Many embodiments include the steps of generating a DRM-unlocking NFT smart contract, uploading the encrypted video content, setting NFT parameters, and providing instant payment to the distributor's wallet address via blockchain upon NFT purchase. Embodiments also allows for the integration of hybrid DRM-unlocking NFTs that grant access to both physical events and video-on-demand content, as well as facilitating rental management, transfers, and temporary content sharing. Other examples of the inventive subject matter enable the creation of farmable DRM-unlocking NFTs, allowing users to own and access farmable NFTs and the content they generate. Many of the embodiments are adaptable and can be integrated with various video-on-demand and physical event platforms.

    摘要: A registration application support system includes: a registration application device that is included in a first organization and applies for pre-registration for delegation of a right regarding access to a resource to an authorization server; and an existence guarantee device that is included in a second organization and guarantees existence of the first organization, in which: the existence guarantee device includes a giving unit that gives an electronic signature to information that guarantees the existence of the first organization, in response to a request from a terminal used by a member of the first organization; the registration application device includes a transmission unit that transmits a display name of the first organization and the information to which the electronic signature has been given to the authorization server in order to apply for the pre-registration; and the authorization server includes a verification unit that causes the existence guarantee device to verify the electronic signature, and a determination unit that determines whether or not the first organization has a right to use the display name. Therefore, pre-registration for delegation of an access right to a resource is safely and efficiently performed.
