METHOD OF RECEIVING A SPECIAL PRIVILEGE BASED UPON ATTENDANCE AND PARTICIPATION IN AN EVENT

摘要

A method for receiving at least one special privilege based upon an attendee's (101) attendance and participation in an event (100) at the geographic location and time of the event (100). The at least one special privilege is received by the attendee (101) from the event sponsor (102) as an incentive to attend and participate in the event (100). A digital media such as a digital rights management (DRM) object (123) is associated with the at least one special privilege which is delivered to a DRM device (120) when the attendee (101) is at the location and time of the event (100). The at least one special privilege associated with the DRM object (123) can be retrieved directly from the DRM device (120). Alternately, the DRM object (123) can be used to retrieve the at least one special privilege from another source.
