Abstract: A system and method of providing sequential media content. The system of some embodiments provides a library that displays representations of media items stored on a device. The library displays representations of a series object. Activating the series object displays purchased media items in a series of media items. After a threshold amount of a media item in the series has been consumed, the series object displays a representation of a next media item in the series along with a control for purchasing the next media item in the series.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for providing an inter-service application, wherein connections of a network service are accessed to facilitate the transfer of an article to a list of participants. The article is transferred to and displayed on the desktop environment of a participant. In some embodiments, a timer is initiated on the first transfer, whereupon expiration of the timer, a termination sequence is performed. The termination sequence terminates transfer of the article to the participant list and further displays a graphical presentation to the current participant. Additional methods and apparatus are described.
