7. A method comprising:

receiving, by a license generation service of a plurality of license generation services, from a user device, a request for access rights for content, wherein the license generation service of the plurality of license generation services is associated with a license generation of a particular format;

transmitting, by the license generation service of the plurality of license generation services, to a license decision service, a request for an access decision for the content, wherein the license decision service and the plurality of license generation services are remotely located from the user device;

determining, by the license decision service, based on a compatibility between the content, the particular format, and the user device, the access decision for the content;

receiving, by the license generation service of the plurality of license generation services, from the license decision service, the access decision for the content;

generating, by the license generation service of the plurality of license generation services, based on the access decision, a license or an access denial; and

transmitting, by the license generation service of the plurality of license generation services, to the user device, the license or the access denial.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein receiving the request for access rights comprises receiving the request for access rights via a first uniform resource identifier.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein transmitting the request for the access decision comprises transmitting the request for the access decision to the license decision service via a second uniform resource identifier, wherein the second uniform resource identifier is different from the first uniform resource identifier.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the first uniform resource identifier is included in a plurality of uniform resource identifiers, wherein each of the plurality of the uniform resource identifiers correspond to a respective license generation service of the plurality of license generation services.

11. The method of claim 7 , wherein each license generation service of the plurality of license generation services corresponds to a respective classification of content of a plurality of classifications of content.

12. The method of claim 7 , wherein each license generation service of the plurality of license generation services corresponds to a respective content format of a plurality of content formats.

13. The method of claim 7 , wherein the request for access rights comprises information identifying the user device or a user associated with the user device.

14. A method comprising:

receiving, by a user device, a first uniform resource identifier corresponding to a license generation service of a plurality of license generation services, wherein each license generation service of the plurality of license generation services is remotely located from the user device, wherein the license generation service of the plurality of license generation services is associated with a license generation of a particular format;

transmitting, by the user device, to the license generation service of the plurality of license generation services via the first uniform resource identifier, a request for access rights to content;

determining, by a license decision service, based on a compatibility between the content, the particular format, and the user device, an access decision;

generating, by the license generation service of the plurality of license generation services, based on the access decision, a license or a denial of access rights; and

receiving, by the user device, from the license generation service of the plurality of license generation services, the license or the denial of access rights.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the first uniform resource identifier is a uniform resource identifier of a plurality of uniform resource identifiers uniquely identifying a respective license generation service of the plurality of license generation services.

16. The method of claim 14 , further comprising receiving the first uniform resource identifier in response to a selection of the content.

17. The method of claim 14 , wherein the request for access rights comprises information identifying the user device or a user associated with the user device.

18. The method of claim 14 , wherein each license generation service of the plurality of license generation services corresponds to a respective classification of content of a plurality of classifications of content.

19. The method of claim 14 , wherein each license generation service of the plurality of license generation services corresponds to a respective content format of a plurality of content formats.
