Abstract
A client computing system determines whether an entitlement for a product is valid for a first point in time. Upon determining that the entitlement for the product is not valid for the first point in time, the client computing system sends a first entitlement request to an entitlement server. Upon determining that the entitlement for the product is valid for the first point in time, the client computing system determines whether the entitlement for the product is valid for a second point in time. Upon determining that the entitlement for the product is not valid for the second point in time, the client computing system sends a second entitlement request to the entitlement server.
