This study is intended to provide more secure contents authentication and user authentication by applying public key algorithm and hardware binding to the DRM system. The proposed system is capable of protecting distributed contents and copyrights as well as resetting any interoperability issues among those involved in transparent and secure contents distribution. The proposed algorithm also affords transparency in the DRM distribution system and protection from unauthorized distribution.

본 사례연구는 한국정보사회진흥원에서 개발한 디지털콘텐츠의 표준식별체계인 UCI(Universal Content Identifier)를 (주)누리미디어 보유의 약33만 건 콘텐츠에 적용한 사례와 비즈니스 모델을 소개하고 있다. UCI란 '디지털콘텐츠의 유통활성화' 를 이룩하기 위한 목적으로 도입하는 기술로 개별 디지털콘텐츠에 식별기호를 부여하는 기술이다. 본 사업은 UCI코드 체계를 이용하여 콘텐츠 관리 시스템을 구축하는 것을 목표로 하고 있다. UCI-RA시스템 구축이후 기대효과로는 콘텐츠 제공과 관련된 업무에 인적, 물적 비용을 절감하고, 신규 콘텐츠 발굴 및 개발이 용이하도록 하였다. 또한 서비스 운영과정에서는 기 확보된 콘텐츠를 비즈니스화 하여 신규 수익창출의 모델로 육성할 수 있다. 한편 콘텐츠 소비과정에서는 콘텐츠 검색의 용이성 및 구매 용이성 증대를 통해 양질의 콘텐츠를 유통하는 것이다. 아울러 운영기업의 콘텐츠 등록 및 운영과정에서의 유료콘텐츠 정산주기율 단축, 콘텐츠 품질 고객만족도 제고 등의 효율성을 증가할 수 있다.

'아바타(Avatar)'가 수익창출에 골머리를 앓고 있는 인터넷 기업들의 주요 수익원으로 자리잡았다. 네티즌들이 온라인 상에서 사용하는 가상의 캐릭터에 옷을 입히고, 액세서리로 장식하는데 '돈'을 지불하는 것이다. 2000년 11월 네오위즈의 채팅사이트 '세이클럽'에서 처음 선보인 아바타 서비스가 이런 돌풍을 일으키리라 예상한 사람은 거의 없었다. 하지만 지난해 삼성경제연구소는 아바타를 2001년 히트상품 8위에 올려 놓으면서 인기를 입증했다. 사이버 공간의 분신을 위해 600원짜리 신발을 신겨주고, 4900원짜리 힙합룩과 크로스백까지 구입한다. 또 500원짜리 선글라스까지 구입해 멋을 부린다. 유료화 콘텐츠의 성공모델로 떠오른 '아바타 비즈니스'를 취재했다.

This study would verify the validity of two transmission technology, 'Clear QAM' and '8VSB'. 'Clear QAM' and '8VSB', the transmisson technology, have been suggested as the concrete alternatives in the situation that half of subscriber of multi channel tv service have been still out of benefit from digital convert. In this study, we have shown that the introduction of 'Clear QAM' and '8VSB' should ease economical burdens and information minority group without extra set-top box. But there is another concern that it should negatively affect on the contents industry by a devaluation of the multi channel tv service or by an infringement of copyright. In these reasons, it is still difficult to solve the related concern, though the government have to set up the politic goal for the related industry as well digital convert. This study suggested that Korea Communication Commission consider above-mentioned technology temporarily, and reconsider 'Clear QAM' around the completion of the digital convert project.

This research examines factors affecting behavioral intention to use integrated platform (IP), which is one of the business models regarding paid digital contents, based on extended United Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT2). IP is a service which is designed to make digital content charged. It combines digitalized format of newspaper, premium news or behind news, and additional information. The results of this paper show that effort expectancy, social influence and hedonic motivation have positive relationship with behavioral intention to use IP (BI). Satisfaction with newspaper shows negative relationship with BI, which means that newspaper and IP can be replaced with each other. Newspaper subscribers tend to have higher BI than non-subscribers. Performance expectancy, gender, age, and satisfaction with website do not have significant effect on BI.

P2P 파일공유는 1999년 처음 등장한 이래 저작권 침해로 디지털 콘텐츠 시장을 파괴하는 '해적'으로 간주 되어왔다. 하지만 최근 들어 P2P 시장의 산업적 가능성을 새롭게 주목하는 움직임이 나타나고 있다. 아울러 학계에서는 P2P의 경제적 영향력을 공급자 편향의 시각이 아닌 소비자 측면을 포함한 균형적 관점으로 바라보기 시작했다. 본 연구 역시 균형적 관점에서 P2P를 바라보려는 접근법의 일환으로, P2P 영화파일 공유 이용자들의 영화소비패턴을 실증적으로 살펴보고자 하였다. 실제 P2P 영화파일 공유 이용자들에 대한 설문결과, 이용자들은 단일한 영화소비성향을 가지고 있지 않았으며 다운로드와 극장 관람빈도가 모두 높은 이른바 '얼리어답터'형과 다운로드를 극장관람의 대체재로 여기는 소위 '해적'형이 공존하고 있었다. 이 중 그간 산업계에서 우려하던 해적형의 비율은 10% 정도로 낮았고, 대부분의 P2P 이용자들은 오히려 일반 극장 관람객보다 더 적극적으로 극장소비를 하는 사람들로 영화산업에 긍정적인 기여를 하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이러한 소비자 분석결과는 향후 본격화되고 있는 P2P 다운로드 유료화 시장에 대한 전망을 밝게 하는 것으로, 현재 유료화에 있어 가장 중시해야 할 것은 불법 무료 다운로드에 대한 경계가 아니라, 소비자 편의적인 시스템의 개발임을 시사한다.

Recently, South Korean newspapers began trying to charge for online news. This study attempts to shed light on the factors that influence payment for online news by analyzing Korea Press Foundation's 2022 Media Audience Survey (N = 58,936). The results of this study showed a steady increase in past payment and paying intent for online news since 2020. Predictors of past payment for online news included gender, age, and education, and interest in political and social issues. News use through specific media (i.e., newspapers, magazines, portals, messengers, social media, video sites, and podcasts), as well as mobile applications and e-mail newsletters, were found to contribute to paid subscriptions. Based on the findings of the study, news organizations should prepare to offer differentiated news content through their own news platforms and establish concrete plans to build trust in news.

IPTV is well known services of TPS (Triple play service). Since TPS supplies the bundle service, service providers can supply low-priced services for their subscribers. To supply high quality contents stably, it is an essential requirement to make payment for the services. According to the type of services, either CAS or DRM is used to protect the pay-contents service. Also IPTV uses or will use these security systems to protect the service. In this paper, we will describe security problems when a IPTV service provider chooses either CAS or DRM, and then propose a new security system to solve the problems.

As contents go digital and networks go broadband, there are a lot of changes made to Ad market caused by multimedia and multichannel environment. While platforms as the contents distribution window are increasing, the reality is that additional Ad revenue through platforms is concentrated on mammoth exclusive media because there are small number of the media that has control over platforms is able to create production and provide capital. In addition, as Media rep laws is passed at the Assembly plenary session, tipping effect in Ad market concentrated to some media. In this reality, pay TV market is expected to be within its direct orbit as it is predicted to produce new contents and distribution growth thanks to a wide variety of genres and experimental challenge. Thus, this study is to propose the methodology and an alternative for pay Ad market expansion. As the result of this research, an improvement scheme of indirect advertisement, virtual advertisement, and prohibited advertising item is suggested, and methodology for advertising market expansion is suggested through enterprise and government.
