Abstract: A media distribution system is presented. A channel producer can access a channel distribution portal to construct one or more channels of rich media content. Channels are defined by one or more media arrangement requirements including a schedule for presenting content, placement of content, orientation of content, layers of content, or other requirements. The arrangement can be compiled into media player commands, which can be sent to subscribing media players. The media players present the channel content according to the compiled arrangement in a manner where each media player presents the channel content substantially at the same time. The system can be used to simulate a shared television viewing experience among cell phone users.

Abstract: Software coordinates or otherwise provides for resolving a media search request, providing a user with a results set taken from at least one peer-to-peer file indexer, and obtaining the media, all without the burdens attendant upon actually running one of the peer-to peer clients. The software is particularly useful when obtaining and playing BitTorrent and Gnutella files according to given genre or channel. Physical devices that run the coordinating software can be quite small, including for example many PDAs and advanced cell phones that communicate wirelessly.
