1. A system for provisioning digital rights associated with a vehicle comprising:
- a vehicle computer system within a vehicle with a vehicle identification number (VIN), wherein the digital rights are associated with the VIN of the vehicle and allow specific content to be communicated to the vehicle computer system from a content provider;
a mobile device in communication with the vehicle computer system and the content provider; and
a computing device that prepares the digital rights in the form of a digital rights management (DRM) package associated with the VIN and communicates the DRM package first to the content provider, wherein the content provider first interprets the DRM package into an access control list and then communicates the access control list to the mobile device, and wherein the mobile device uses the access control list to allow content to be communicated from the content provider to the vehicle computer system via the mobile device.
