Abstract
A method and system for the secure distribution of content over a communications network such as the Internet where a content owner distributes content broken down into blocks to one or more content sources, the content sources serving as distribution points to subscribers, with the content owner retaining control over the distribution transaction. A subscriber requesting a content item from a content owner receives a list of content sources with available blocks of the content item in addition to the subscriber determining blocks available from peers on available peer-to-peer networks, and uses this information to determine a more optimal distribution of blocks of the content.
