An increasing number of mobile handsets, PCs and PMPs
now include slots for removable media which store images, music, and data. VideoGuard® Removable Media thereby offers a unique way for content owners and service providers to deliver new TV services to consumers.
How does this work? Memory cards
include an NDS security agent to ensure that users
can store content on these cards and then consume it—watch or listen—on various CE devices. Content is secured against piracy while consumers have flexibility to enjoy or share it.
VideoGuard Removable Media can also be used to generate
more revenue opportunities with the following services:
- Download services. Download secured
content from the PC to the removable media card, while
supporting a wide range of flexible business rules
such as subscription, Pay-per-View (PPV), Pay-per-Time,
Purchase Once - Use Forever, Free Preview, and License
Renewal.
- Pre-loaded content. Purchase a
memory card that is pre-loaded with content. Preview
and purchase additional content that is pre-packaged
in the card.
VideoGuard Removable Media provides a wide range of
security applications for these devices: mobile, MP3,
PMP, personal navigation devices (PND), and e-Books.
