METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR SHARING DIGITAL RIGHTS MANAGEMENT-PROTECTED MULTIMEDIA CONTENT USING BIOMETRIC DATA

摘要

Digital multimedia content having a rights object associated therewith may be shared between multiple devices. A first device includes digital multimedia content and an associated rights object therein. Biometric user data is obtained at the first device via a biometric sensor associated therewith and is combined with the rights object to provide a user-specific rights object. The multimedia content and the user-specific rights object are loaded onto a second device. Biometric user data is obtained at the second device via a biometric sensor associated therewith and is combined with the user-specific rights object to provide the rights object at the second device. The digital multimedia content is rendered on the second device using the rights object.
