Abstract
An architecture is presented that facilitates the transfer of content and rights from a network device to a non-network device. The system comprises a trusted digital rights management (DRM) agent/server that is associated with a network device. The trusted DRM agent/server communicates with a non-network device to transfer content and rights. Specifically, the trusted DRM agent/server of the network device communicates with a second trusted DRM agent/server associated with the non-network device. The trusted DRM agent/server mutually authenticates the second trusted DRM agent/server in order to extend the DRM content and rights provided by the content providers. After mutual authentication, the trusted DRM agent/server transfers rights and contents to the second trusted DRM agent/server. Once the rights and content are transferred, the original copy of the content is guaranteed to be deleted from the trusted DRAM agent/server to preserve the current license rights of the content.
