A data transferring device and a data transfer method. The data transferring device for transferring an audio-visual stream stored in a first medium to a second medium, includes: a reader comprising reading circuitry configured to read the audio-visual stream from the first medium; and a controller configured to: extract an audio packet and a video packet from the audio-visual stream; write the audio packet and video packet to the second medium; and store, in a memory, first location information indicating locations at which the audio packet and the video packet are written in the second medium, and second location information indicating locations at which the audio packet and the video packet are read from the first medium.

A method for displaying a menu based on a service environment analysis in a content execution apparatus is disclosed. In accordance with the method for displaying the menu based on the service environment analysis in the content execution apparatus of the present invention, a menu is displayed according to a menu information extracted from a storage media, wherein services available to a user from a content execution apparatus is determined and the menu information is updated according to the availability of services.

A user selection of one or more of a plurality of content is received. The selected content is encrypted by a first encryption key that is remote and unknown to the distribution server. Payment information associated with the user selection is also received and verified. The selected content from is retrieved from a remote database. The first encryption key corresponding to the selected content to decrypt the encrypted content corresponding to the user selection is obtained. Decryption is performed by a hardware-based engine of the distribution server that is isolated from a host processor of the distribution server. The content corresponding to the user selection is encrypted according to a second encryption key that is known to the distribution server.
