Abstract

See full text

Presented is a playback device capable of encrypted media content distribution that includes a processor, a decryption algorithm stored in memory, multiple units of encrypted media content preloaded on a storage device, a decoder that decrypts the media content using a decryption key, a receiver and remote control apparatus. A user obtains the decryption key from a remote system, which can be an authorization system that provides the decryption key after the user provides payment. A user account exists on the remote system, which automatically charges the user account and provides the decryption key upon receiving a media content selection and an account number or a personal identification number from the user.
