Abstract: A “buy” button is provided on devices that receive content material to facilitate a purchase of content related material as the content material is being presented to a consumer. If, while listening to or viewing content material from a provider, the consumer decides the purchase the content material, or an item associated with the content material, the consumer activates a “buy” button on the device that is rendering the content material. The rendering device associates an item identifier associated with the content material to this “buy” command, and forms a purchase request containing this item identifier. If the rendering device has a receive-only capability relative to the provider of the content material, the purchase request is stored until the rendering device is brought in contact with a content access device that is able to transmit to the provider.
