The present invention is an apparatus and method for the money transactions required in the selling of merchandise or media content on the Internet or other public or private network. File transport and access are based on a consumer advantaged legal definition for ownership. The end-user is given ownership and allowed to provide data input to generate keys. End-user controlled keys are generated on the premise that the sender or ultimate distributor of the original file need not maintain control over the keys once ownership has passed. Ownership is tracked and maintained with license metadata and credentials from multiple types of digital rights management systems to allow content protected transmission and storage. Non-audible or invisible code signal sequence(s) may provide traceability and absolute anonymity for the purchaser. This apparatus can be used to conduct transactions off the web so that business can be done on the web.
