Abstract
A media validation system including a plurality of media storage devices which contain a quantity of content thereon, a user computer processor assembly structured to operatively access a select media storage device, a verification module, and a communicative link between the verification module and the user computer processor assembly. Each of the media storage devices includes a unique unit identifier, the verification module identifying the unique unit identifier of the select media storage device and receiving user information associated therewith. The verification module is also structured to apply a reward credit in association with only a first user whose user information is associated with the unique unit identifier for the select media storage device.

- wherein the reward credit comprises points or value.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a memory device configured to store instructions;
- and
- a processing device configured to execute the instructions stored in the memory device to:
- validate a storage device having primary content stored thereon by associating the storage device to a unique identifier and by associating the storage device to information corresponding to an initial user of the storage device;
- apply a reward credit to the initial user based at least in part on validation of the storage device;
