Method and system for data delivery and reproduction
First Claim
1. A system for selecting title data and for providing selected title data to a customer, comprising:
- a service bureau coupled to a communications network, that captures a plurality of title data for a plurality of titles, the service bureau including an encryption device that encrypts the title data and provides encrypted title data and a decryption key to the communications network;
an entry portal coupled to the communications network, that provides summary data of the plurality of title data, that allows the customer to select and order the selected title data, and that provides selection information data and customer information data to the communications network;
a central storage facility coupled to the communications network, that receives the encrypted title data and the decryption key, that catalogs and stores the encrypted title data and the decryption key, and that upon receipt of the selection information data, provides the encrypted title data and the decryption key to the communications network;
a delivery device coupled to the communications network, that receives the selection information data and the customer information data, that requests the encrypted title data and the decryption key, that includes a decryption device that decrypts the encrypted title data using the decryption key, and that provides decrypted selected title data; and
a watermarking device, that time/frequency modulates at least a portion of the decrypted selected title data at a plurality of locations within the decrypted selected title data, according to a randomly selected time/frequency modulation to numbers relationship, to watermark the decrypted selected title data with the customer information data, and that provides watermarked title data as the selected title data to the customer.

Abstract
This application relates to a system and method for distributing title data on demand. An embodiment of the system comprises a service bureau that captures a plurality of title data. The service bureau may include an encryption device that encrypts the title data and that provides encrypted title data and a corresponding decryption key. The system may also include an entry portal. The entry portal and the service bureau may be coupled to a communications network. The entry portal allows the customer to select and order the title data and provides information to the customer that will allow selection of the title data. The system also may include a storage facility that may also be coupled to the communication network, and that stores the encrypted title data and decryption key. The system may further include a delivery device that can also be coupled to the communication network, that responds to the selection information of the customer, retrieves the encrypted title data and the decryption key from the storage facility, that may decrypt the encrypted title data using the decryption key, and that may provide the decrypted title data to the customer. In addition, the system includes a watermarking device that watermarks at least a portion of the decrypted title data at a plurality of locations within the decrypted title data, with customer information data, so that the title data provided to a customer includes the watermark information.

58. A method of selecting title data and delivering selected title data to a customer, the method comprising the steps of:
-
capturing a plurality of title data for a plurality of titles;
encrypting the plurality of title data for the plurality of titles to provide a plurality of encrypted title data and a corresponding decryption key for each encrypted title data;
cataloging and storing the plurality of encrypted title data and each corresponding decryption key at a central storage facility;
previewing summary data for the plurality of title data with an entry portal coupled to a communications network;
selecting and ordering the selected title data through the entry portal, and providing selection information data and customer information data to the communications network;
in response to receipt of the selection information data via the communications network by the central storage facility, transmitting the encrypted title data corresponding to the selected title data and the corresponding decryption key via the communications network;
in response to receiving the encrypted title data and the corresponding decryption key, decrypting the encrypted title data with the decryption key to provide decrypted selected title data;
time/frequency modulating at least a portion of the decrypted selected title data at a plurality of locations, according to a randomly selected time/frequency modulation to number relationship, to watermark the decrypted selected title data with the customer information data, and to provide watermarked title data; and
providing the watermarked title data to the customer as the selected title data. - View Dependent Claims (59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111)
