Publication number: 20170236190Abstract: The invention provides, in some aspects, a digital commerce system that includes a first digital data device, a second digital data device and a third digital data device, each of which is connected to a network that provides at least intermittent communications coupling between the second digital data device and each of the first and second digital data devices. Redirection logic executing on at least the second digital data device effects storage on the third digital data device of a digital media object downloaded from the first digital data device to the second digital data device. The redirection logic accomplishes that in such a manner that storage of the digital media object on the third digital data device is effected before storage of that digital media object on the second digital data device—if the digital media object is stored to the second digital data device at all.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2017Publication date: August 17, 2017Applicant: ReDigi, Inc.Inventors: Lawrence S. Rogel, John M. Ossenmacher, Jonathan Lin, Xiao Zou

Publication number: 20140052558Abstract: The invention provides in some aspects a digital data system that includes a first digital data device that, in order to transfer a digital media object to a second digital data device, transfers to that second digital data device a virtual machine embodying that digital media object. Those digital data devices may be, according to aspects of the invention, any of mainframe computers, minicomputers, workstations, desktop computers, portable computers, tablet computers, smart phones, personal digital assistants, eReaders, video consoles, movie players and other dedicated digital data devices.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2013Publication date: February 20, 2014Applicant: REDIGI, INC.Inventor: ReDigi, Inc.

Publication number: 20140046796Abstract: The invention provides, in some aspects, a digital commerce system that includes first and second digital data devices that are coupled with a server digital data processor via a network supporting at least intermittent communications therebetween. The server digital data processor is responsive to requests by owners/operators of those digital data devices for (i) selling or otherwise transferring ownership of or other rights in an object from an owner/operator of the first digital data device to an owner/operator of the second digital data device, and (ii) transferring any of credits and/or monetary funds (collectively, “funds”) from an owner/operator of the second digital data device to a charity designated by the owner/operator of the first digital data device.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2013Publication date: February 13, 2014Applicant: REDIGI, INC.Inventor: REDIGI, INC.

Publication number: 20140040201Abstract: The invention provides in some aspects an improved method for transfer of digital media objects that includes storing a digital file on a first digital data device and migrating that digital file to a second digital data device by repeating a plurality of times the steps of: (i) transferring to a second digital data a respective piece of the digital file, (ii) storing that respective piece of the digital file on the second digital data device. The foregoing are effected so that no respective piece of the digital file is concurrently stored on the first and second digital data devices and/or, more generally, so that any same portion of the digital file that is concurrently stored on the first and second digital data devices comprises not more than an insubstantial amount of the digital data file. Methods and apparatus according to the invention can be used for the (re)sale, lending, streaming or other transfer of digital music, digital books and other digital media objects.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2013Publication date: February 6, 2014Applicant: REDIGI, INC.Inventor: ReDigi, Inc.

Publication number: 20140022258Abstract: The invention provides in some aspects a method of visually representing a song, other creative work or other digital media object (embodying that song or other creative work) that includes generating, with digital data apparatus, a graphical depiction that algorithmically characterizes one or more properties of the song or other creative work in an image of a living thing or portion thereof. In some aspects of the invention, that living thing can be, for example, a human or other an animal, a plant or a tree. In further related aspects of the invention, that living thing or portion thereof is a cartoon or lifelike image of a human face, for example, a Chernoff face.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2013Publication date: January 23, 2014Applicant: REDIGI, INC.Inventor: Lawrence S.

Publication number: 20130013399Abstract: The invention provides in some aspects a system including a server digital data processor that executes on an ad server which is in communications coupling with a client digital data processor. An app executing on the client responds to display of an advertisement, effected by the ad server, by determining whether a user of the app has touched the screen (or otherwise responded to) a “get more information,” or other control displayed with the ad. If so, the app delays display of a web site or other collateral until the app reaches a suitable stopping point. At that point, the app queries the user to determine when and/or how he/she wishes to visit the web site and/or to have the collateral delivered.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 3, 2012Publication date: January 10, 2013Applicant: REDIGI INC.Inventor: Lawrence S.
