Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for a media provider to allow a user to access media objects with a third-party partner that authenticates the user and authorizes the user to access certain media objects. The media provider offers access to media objects, such as video content or audio content. The partner, through a relationship with the media provider, similarly offers access to the media provider's media objects, for example, as a service or benefit to the partner's customers or users. In particular, a partner integration server mediates user authentication and authorization by the partner. The partner integration server also allows the media provider to easily and flexibly to add and integrate additional partners.
