A method and system for delivering digital content to a multitude of set-top devices that are purchased by consumers and connected to the Internet as part of a virtual private network (VPN) provides more efficient and secure distribution of digital content such as movies, television, music, games and other digital media. Each set-top device is secured by using a mass storage device to store digital content that is partitioned into a consumer portion and a VPN portion. Unlike traditional computers that can access digital content on the Internet with browser interfaces running on computer displays, the set-top devices have limited operating system access with no browser interfaces and are designed to be operated by the consumer from a navigation and program guide user interface displayed on a digital media device. |
