Abstract :
Paradiso is a prototype of a system that lets consumers contact content providers to buy songs and videos-and to buy optional content-resale rights. In essence, the scheme would turn customers into content distributors, provide wider reach, and free up content providers´ bandwidth. However, such an architecture requires strict security precautions and interoperable digital rights management standards among player manufacturers and content providers.
