Abstract
This invention provides a method and a system for selling content capable of ensuring a fair profit of a copyrighter of a creation in content. More specifically, this invention provides a method and a system for selling content for judging whether an user terminal has purchase information of each creation in content including one or two creations or more or not and for calculating forwarding charge of the content based on whether the user terminal has purchase information of each creation in the content or not, in forwarding the content to the user terminal. The method and system for selling content enable to circulate the creation itself in the content as the object of dealing and to gain profit directly from the user of content. Therefore, the copyrighter can gain the fair profit without being influenced by the achievement of the content including the creation. This is also to encourage the creative urge of the creator and to improve the creative level of the creator. In addition, since the user of content can purchase the content including the creation having the purchase information with cheap price, consumption activity is to be vitalized effectively.
