  • Patent number: 6212555
    Abstract: A system for providing recorded audio programming in digital form, comprising a computer server capable of digitally recording, holding and uploading audio programming in either musical or voice formats and able to transmit such modulated digital data in a time-compressed, encrypted and encoded manner through a wireless transmission, where the data is received using RF electronics, then stored for transfer to a combination audio receiver/player/data storage device. This storage device comprises a readable/writable memory storage mechanism (e.g., disk drive, hard drive, memory or flash card system) and playback or player feature interfaced with a mobile or fixed site RF receiver capable of receiving wireless transmissions. As the transmissions are received, the programming data is demodulated and stored in digital form and then converted to “real time” audio one file at a time, utilizing a digital-to-analog converter, and played back to the listener.
