First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for validating legitimate media products associated with a legitimate media type, the method comprising:
- loading a first media product having a first media type on a computing device;
measuring a first load time for the first media product on the computing device;
establishing a threshold range of acceptable first load times using a second load time associated with the legitimate media type; and
determining whether the first load time is within the threshold range.

Abstract
A system and method for detecting piracy of a software product that is distributed on a particular media type is described. Embodiments of the invention track a title load time of a software product that is distributed on a particular media type, and compare it against a benchmark load time for that media type. This comparison is used to detect if the title may have been illegally transferred or pirated to another, unauthorized media type.

17. A system for validating legitimate media products associated with a legitimate media type, the system comprising:
-
a computing device that loads a first media product having a first media type and that measures a first load time for the first media product; a processor that calculates a second load time for the legitimate media type, establishes a threshold range of acceptable first load times using the second load time, and determines whether the first load time is within the threshold range; and a memory coupled to the processor. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33)
