Abstract

See full text

A controller (900) for transferring media content rights between media devices comprising a memory (906), a user interface (910) and a transceiver (902). The memory (906) stores a list of media devices (914) capable of receiving the permissions associated with the media content from an originating device and an encryption key (920) that may be used to encrypt the permissions. The user interface (910) detects a user selection of a target device from the list of media devices (914). The transceiver (902) communicates an address (916) associated with the target device and the encryption key (920) to the originating device. Thus, the originating device is able to encrypt the permissions using the encryption key (920) and send the encrypted permissions to the address (916) associated with the target device.
