Abstract: A system for accessing entertainment options includes a graphic user interface generator that generates program listing display data to display a listing of programs available for downloading to a user on an associated display device. A user may select one or more programs from the listing displayed on the associated display device using the user access device, thereby initiating download of the selected program by the communication component. The storage device stores user history data, which is used to generate recommendation display data based upon the recommendation data to enable the user to view and/or select for download recommended programs. The graphic user interface generator may generate download queue data for display on the associated display device, wherein the displayed download queue data enables the user to view and/or edit the current download status of each program to be downloaded.
