Methods and systems for distributing right-protected asset

摘要

A method includes allowing a right-protected asset to be shared by a first device with a second device while they are within a determinable proximity of one another. Subsequent to the sharing, an option to acquire the right-protected asset is presented to the second device when the first device and the second device are not within the determinable proximity of one another.

主权项

1. A processor-implemented method comprising:
using at least one processor coupled to a memory, receiving, at a server computer system, a request, from a first computing device, to share a right-protected asset with a second computing device, wherein the request is received while the first computing device and the second computing device are both connected to a common wireless communication device; transmitting, from the server computer system, the right-protected asset to the second computing device while the first computing device and the second computing device are both connected to a common wireless communication device; responsive to at least the server computer system detecting that the second computing device and the first computing device are no longer both connected to the common wireless communication device, preventing the second computing device from accessing the right-protected asset; and providing the second computing device an option to acquire the right-protected asset while the second computing device and the first computing device are no longer both connected to the common wireless communication device and subsequent to providing the right-protected asset to the second computing device.
