【 摘 要 】

Can the media industry profitably use peer-to-peer networks to increase their market? We propose a novel media distribution system called FluidMedia that potentially answers this question. FluidMedia provides a framework within which users can trade in media copyrights legally and remunerate the media provider for these. Furthermore, users are actually encouraged to engage in such trade through economic incentives. 11 Pages
