You may not want to reencrypt the content for every user (although, some systems do that). Generating public-private key pair from a password is not commonly done in RSA cryptography (and it is just easier to keep the key on the server anyway). Also, typically, you have to limit a number of devices in some way or many content providers just won't take you seriously.
