<p>A system and method manages the royalties for owners of digital content when processed or output by a user. A control module on a user device decodes information in a watermark embedded in a digital file and restricts output of the digital file based on the decoded information. The control module obtains charge-back information from the user and sends it to a remote managing account payment module for verification. With the information verified, the account payment module sends access information to the user device that permits the digital file to be output. After output, the control module sends information about the output to the account payment module, which debits funds from the user's account and credits the digital file owner's account based on the output of the digital file by the user.</p> |
