Abstract
A system and method for licensing content on an updated storage media is provided where new licensed content is downloaded and stored onto the updatable storage media containing licensing rights. The licensing rights are stored in a SMLD on the storage media. The rights will be authenticated by a rights management server somewhere on the Internet. If the rights management server determines that a user has rights to the new content, then the user is allowed to access and download the new content from a content server. The present invention may be utilized in various industries such as music, film, B2B, education, and television and may be embodied on various media such as DVD storage media, CD storage media, and hybrid optical disk media.
