Patent ID: 8781120

Claim:
A system comprising: a first computing device having a first data store, a first processor and a first network interface connected to a network; and a second computing device having a second data store, a second processor and a second network interface connected to the network, wherein the first computing device is configured to: access a copy protected data carrier having a first data set including at least audio/video content, the first data set being associated with a unique code stored as data on the copy protected data carrier, wherein the copy protected data carrier is a CD, a DVD or any other storage medium, the first data set is not readable by the first computing device while the first computing device accesses the copy protected data carrier having the first data set, and the unique code is readable by the first computing device, and transfer the unique code obtained from the copy protected data carrier to the second computing device via the network, the second computing device is configured to: verify the unique code as a valid code associated with the copy protected data carrier, output a second data set of audio/video content associated with the unique code to the first computing device via the network based on a positive result by the verifying, the second data set including at least a portion of audio/video content that is a copy of the audio/video content stored on the copy protected data carrier, generate a log of either or both of verification or output instances, and compare each receipt of said unique code from the first computing device against the log and in response to a predetermined verification or output limit being reached, suspend the output of the portion of audio/video content that is the copy of the audio/video content stored on the copy protected data carrier, wherein the second data set is controlled by digital rights management to prevent further transfer of the audio/video content of the second data set from the first computing device.
