Patent abstract
An IC with a purse is permanently mounted on the main motherboard of a TV and communicates with the main CPU. The purse chip holds electronic funds, and the user can, by means of OSDs, purchase content and services using the funds. The user can replenish the purse from time to time. The purse chip does not contain personal identifying information, so it facilitates transfer of ownership when a TV is sold and anonymous transactions.
