Abstract
A method and mechanism controls consumption of media objects in a communication terminal, especially in a mobile terminal. A media object, such as a game, and an associated rights object are stored in a communication terminal. The rights object defines usage rules for the media object. Sales parameters are accepted from a user of the terminal. The sales parameters indicate that the user is willing to sell the rights of consumption of the media object to a certain extent. Upon receiving this indication, the media object is prevented from being consumed in the communication terminal more than what is defined by the usage rules and the certain extent. A sell offer may then be transferred to a trading entity.
