  • Publication number: 20110247084
    Abstract: Licensed access to selected videos is provided by a licensing service organization that obtains licenses from video content providers and combines these licenses into a new license for selected videos for a licensee organization. Administrators at the licensee organization then obtain a video authorization key for each video selection from the licensing service organization and embed those keys into web pages that are accessible via an intranet. Navigating to a web page for that selection from a computer connected to the intranet causes a viewing request that includes the embedded video authorization key and an IP address of the computer to be sent to a server at the licensing service organization. The server uses the incoming information to determine whether the request is from a predetermined intranet computer and if so to determine whether the request can be granted based on the new license conditions.
