The FluidMedia system provides a convenient means to legally transfer copyrighted digital media. Its ability to support off-line sales transactions and authentication of media access rights allows system users great flexibility in the way they access and distribute media, yet still provides strong control over piracy for content distributors. Furthermore, the FluidMedia system supports transaction policies that provide economic incentives to system users to distribute media.
