Method, system, and device for license-centric content consumption
First Claim
1. A system for license-centric content use or distribution, the system comprising:
- a pre-existing digital rights management (DRM) system having a unique interface to a repository of data thereof to govern use of content;
a shared license repository configured to access the data to govern the use of the content and to communicate with the unique interface of the pre-existing DRM system; and
a user interface configured to interact with the pre-existing DRM system, and configured to allow the user to send a license associated with the content from the shared license repository to the pre-existing DRM system or to another shared license repository.

55. A computer-implemented method for license-centric content use or distribution in a system including a pre-existing digital rights management (DRM) system having a unique interface to a repository of data thereof to govern use of content, the method comprising the steps of:
-
accessing, via a shared license repository, the data to govern the use of the content and to communicate with the unique interface of the pre-existing DRM system; and
interacting, via a user interface, with the pre-existing DRM system, and allowing the user to send a license associated with the content from the shared license repository to the pre-existing DRM system or to another shared license repository. - View Dependent Claims (56, 57, 58, 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. A device for license-centric content use or distribution for use with a pre-existing digital rights management (DRM) system having a unique interface to a repository of data thereof to govern use of content, the device comprising:
-
a shared license repository configured to access the data to govern the use of the content and to communicate with the unique interface of the pre-existing DRM system; and
a user interface configured to interact with the pre-existing DRM system, and configured to allow the user to send a license associated with the content from the shared license repository to the pre-existing DRM system or to another shared license repository. - View Dependent Claims (112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 128, 129, 130, 131, 132, 133, 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 145, 146, 147, 148, 149, 150, 151, 152, 153, 154, 155, 156, 157, 158, 159, 160, 161, 162, 163, 164)
