Zusammenfassung:A system and method for securely partitioning a media library of a media-on-demand system is provided. Middleware instances are created for each user group defined in the media-on-demand system. Users or clients that are part of a particular user group can only access content that has been registered with the associated middleware instance. A common media server can service multiple middleware instances reducing hardware resources and administration costs. Only content that has been registered with the middleware associated with a particular user group is viewable by the user thus providing a more secure media library.
