Abstract

A computer network (100) having a requesting node (110) and a providing node (108) permits data transfer therebetween when permitted by an authorizing node (112). Reports generated in response to authorizations and reports generated in response to data transfers are reconciled at a reconciliation node (118) to improve the accuracy of payments collected and paid for use of the data. Such payments include copyright royalties for audio, video, and other works recorded in digital format.
