Abstract

The present invention provides rental of digital video signals occurring within an online environment including one or more client computers (102). The method includes providing access to an online catalog stored within a memory of a netwoek (120) video server computer (130). The online catalog includes information regarding digital video signals available for rental from the network server computer (130). Requests are then received from client computers (102) for rental of digital video signals selected from the online catalog for a specified period of time.
