Electronic media communication apparatus

An electronic media communication apparatus that distributes encrypted electronic media from a server to a client over a network,

• the server comprising:
• encryption means that performs encryption of electronic media distributed to the client, using an encryption system according to mechanisms in the client;
• electronic media specific circuit configuration means that generates logic circuit data for decrypting the encrypted electronic media and removes from the generated logic circuit data circuit data specific to a terminal uniquely implemented for the client to generate logic circuit data specific to the electronic media;
• and
• means for transmitting to the client the encrypted electronic media and the logic circuit data generated by the electronic media specific circuit configuration means;
• the client comprising:
• means for configuring an electronic media security circuit by receiving the logic circuit data generated by the electronic media specific circuit configuration means, generating a logic circuit specific to the electronic media and combining the logic circuit and a terminal specific circuit uniquely implemented for the client;
• and
• information output means that uses the electronic media security circuit to decrypt the encrypted electronic media and converts it to usable electronic media for an output.
