Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and method for allowing a consumer to provide feedback about a media product from a media distribution platform via the user's social network account.SOLUTION: Upon selection of an option by a user to communicate information about a media product via a social network message, a media distribution platform generates a pre-filled social network message that includes an identifier of the media product. In addition to allowing information about media products to be communicated via a social network, the media product identifier also enables the media distribution platform to retrieve information about a media product's popularity as indicated by the number of social network messages that include the identifier. This invention can enhance and personalize user media product recommendations through the media distribution platform.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide improved techniques for storage, delivery and acquisition of digital assets stored in cloud data storage.SOLUTION: A specific client device can access not only locally stored digital assets but also remotely stored digital assets from cloud data storage. Downloads of digital assets resident in cloud data storage to client devices can be managed in view of available network performance. Digital assets of differing quality levels can be downloaded in a manner dependent on network performance. Locally stored digital assets of reduced quality can be upgraded (e.g., replaced) by higher quality versions in a manner dependent on network performance.
Abstract:
Systems and processes for operating an intelligent automated assistant are provided. In accordance with one example, a method includes, at an electronic device with one or more processors and memory, receiving a first natural-language speech input indicative of a request for media, where the first natural-language speech input comprises a first search parameter; providing, by a digital assistant, a first media item identified based on the first search parameter. The method further includes, while providing the first media item, receiving a second natural language speech input and determining whether the second input corresponds to a user intent of refining the request for media. The method further includes, in accordance with a determination that the second speech input corresponds to a user intent of refining the request for media: identifying, based on the first parameter and the second speech input, a second media item and providing the second media item.
Abstract:
sistema e dispositivo eletrônico de entrega e aquisição inteligente e meio legível por computador não transitório. a presente invenção refere-se a técnicas e a sistemas aprimorados para entrega e aquisição de ativos digitais. as técnicas e os sistemas são especialmente adequados e úteis para entrega de ativos digitais (por exemplo, ativos de mídia) que estão disponíveis para aquisição e entrega eletrônica a partir de lojas online para dispositivos eletrônicos. de acordo com um aspecto, quando um ativo digital é adquirido a partir de uma loja online através de um dispositivo eletrônico associado a um usuário, o ativo digital pode ser disposto para entrega a vários dos outros dispositivos eletrônicos também associados ao usuário. será apreciado que o ativo digital pode ser entregue ou adquirido sem a solicitação de entrada de usuário explícita ou instrução de acordo com outro aspecto. outros aspectos das técnicas e sistemas incluem customização de configuração e interfaces de usuário que são fornecidas para facilitar a aquisição de ativos digitais em um modo mais eficiente.

Abstract:
Systems and techniques are disclosed for controlling, from a mobile device, media content stored on the mobile device to a media client for presentation on a display device. Data can be provided from the mobile device to the media client for identifying the location of the media content and a playback time. Based on the data, the media client can obtain a portion of the media content associated with the playback time. Also, playback of the media content on the display device can be controlled by a user of the mobile device.
Abstract:
An online store can transmit an online account token to an electronic device or to a biometric sensing device after a user successfully enters his or her account password. The electronic device or the biometric sensing device can countersign the online account token when the one or more biometric images match reference biometric images and the account password matches user identifier data stored in the electronic device or in the biometric sensing device. The countersigned online account token can then be transmitted to the online store. The user can then make one or more purchases after the online store receives the countersigned online account token.
Abstract:
An improved system, device and method for accessing features of digital products with assistance from a content distribution system are disclosed. Third-party content can be submitted to and distributed by the content distribution system. In other words, the third-party content can be hosted (and distributed) by the content distribution system. A download interface can facilitate application programs operating on a client device to locally request and receive downloads from the content distribution system. Typically, a user of a client device would purchase an application program and then sometime later, using the application program, also purchase supplemental content for use with the application program. Once the supplemental content is purchased, it needs to be downloaded to the client device. Download policies are used to manage the download of supplemental content.
