A method to securely distribute media content such as Audio or Video with associated media information as part of a media package, in a media distribution system. The media content is encrypted and can be decrypted using a code, process or algorithm called a program key which is further encrypted and stored in the media package as one or both of a service encrypted program key or a locally encrypted program key. When a payment arrangement is not required the program key can be obtained by decrypting the locally encrypted program key, but when a payment arrangement is required, the locally encrypted program key cannot be decrypted or is not present and the service encrypted program key must be decrypted using a decryption message provided by a server after the payment arrangement is made. Media content, the locally encrypted program key and the service encrypted program key are re-encrypted periodically to ensure the security of the media package.
