Abstract:
1. A method for supporting a post browsing in moving a rights object in digital rights management, the method comprising: receiving, by a first user equipment (UE) which is able to consume a content, at least one rights object for allowing the content to be consumed from a server, wherein the rights object is owned by the first UE after the rights object is issued by the server; if the rights object is to be moved via the server to a second UE which is able to consume a content, disabling, by the first UE, the rights object such that the rights object is unusable; transmitting, by the first UE and to the same server, a request message to move the rights object to the second UE, wherein the request message includes information on the rights object to be moved; receiving, by the first UE, a response message including address information from the server; checking, by the first UE, whether or not the address information is included in the response message; connecting, by the first UE, to a server based on the address information thereby enabling a browsing session to select or deselect the rights object to be moved and to manage charge and payment required to move the rights object; and deleting, by the first UE, the rights object.
