Abstract
Methods and systems for content management are described. If programming content is distributed to viewers, signals such as markers are transmitted with the programming content. If a user device receives the marker, the use device may make a request to a rights management device. The rights management device may receive the request and determine an identifier associated with the request and an identifier associated with the marker. The rights management server may determine if the user device is authorized for supplemental features associated with the programming content.
