A method of distributing an image set stored as an image set signal at a hub station, and an apparatus for executing the method. The method includes: selecting, at a first terminal remote from the hub station, from among a plurality of possible access rights to generate a granted access right set which contains a set of access rights to the stored image set; transmitting from the first terminal to the hub station, the granted access right set in association with an electronic address for a third party; storing the granted access right set and an associated access identification at the hub station; automatically transmitting from the hub station to the third party electronic address: an electronic address for the hub station, a listing of the access rights of the granted set associated with the third party electronic address, and the access identification; transmitting to the hub station from a second terminal remote from the first terminal and hub station, the access identification and a request to access the image set in accordance with one of the granted access rights; and allowing, at the hub terminal, the second terminal to access the image set only in accordance with the granted access right set. <IMAGE> |
