Technology is raising important challenges in theIntellectual Property (IP) field in general. The technology thathas made possible the access to content in a ubiquitous manner,available to everyone in a simple and fast way, is also the mainresponsible for the challenges affecting the digital content IP of our days.Technological solutions and legal frameworks werecreated to meet these new challenges. From the technological point ofview, Rights Management Systems (RMS) and Copy Protection Systems(CPS) have been developed and deployed to try to cope with them.At first, they seemed to work however, their closed andnon-interoperable nature and a growing number of wrong strategic businessdecisions, soon lead to a strong opposition. One of the strongestnegative points is the lack of rights management interoperability.This book addressed the RMS interoperabilityproblems, presenting some possible mechanisms to improve theinteroperability between the different existing and emerging open rightsmanagement platforms.
