Sorry for the top post 

If you are going to do something like this then RSA cards are the best
specially securid
It can be implemented almost out of the box and it has great lib support
also.

        Subject: [Full-disclosure] SmartCards programming...
        
        
        Hello, 
        
        I have to achieve a technical project for my french high school...
And the subject is about cryptography and smart cards...
        The goal is to write the programs and all the associated stuff... in
order to create a  DRM-like system: when an user enter his card, a software
check his key (or certificate or...) and if  the authentication succeed, the
wanted file (document, video, audio...) is open by the software... 
        Yesterday I bought a programmer/writer : the Infinity USB but I
wanna know if someone could give me some interresting links about smart card
programming (java, basic, .....). I already know some things about
cryptography but I am a newbie in smart card programming. Wich language I
have to learn? Which type of smart cards I have to buy? Which algorithms I
can use (DES, RSA, Elliptic Curves, AES...)?? 
        
        thanks...
