The widespread use of the Internet has led to the problem of intellectual property and copyright infringement. Digital rights management (DRM) technologies have been developed to protect digital content items. Digital content can be classified into static content (for example, text or media files) and dynamic content (for example, VOD or multicast streams). This paper deals with the protection of a multicast stream on set-top boxes connected to an IP network. In this paper, we examine the following design and architectural issues to be considered when applying DRM functions to multicast streaming service environments: transparent streaming service and large-scale user environments. To address the transparency issue, we introduce a 'selective encryption scheme'. To address the second issue, a 'key packet insertion scheme' and 'hierarchical key management scheme' are introduced. Based on the above design and architecture, we developed a prototype of a multicasting DRM system. The analysis of our implementation shows that it supports transparent and scalable DRM multicasting service in a large-scale user environment.

Recently, Korea became the first country which started Terrestrial-DMB service. The DMB service is still at a very early stage throughout the world. At this stage, it is an important issue to develop DMB contents which distinguish DMB from traditional broadcasting by utilizing DMB's mobility. In this paper, we will propose outline of map service through DMB along with related services such as traffic and location information. This outline includes the map service protocol and map data structure for DMB. There is little research at the moment related to it, and this preliminary research enables map service through DMB. A map service would bring DMB a distinct advantage over traditional broadcasting. Moreover, further services based on broadcasting network and mobility would contribute to rapid growth of DMB.
