Abstract: A system and method for securely streaming/downloading and playing coherent digital content such as music and preventing its play by unauthorized users, facilitating a peer-to-peer sharing of cloned content. The system may include mass server/storage devices for receiving and storing digital content having predetermined gaps, and client devices communicating with the server/storage devices and providing authorization to proceed. During playing of the digital content by the client devices, the removed components may be reinserted into the missing gaps at the appropriate places, to allow the play or cloning of the coherent digital content.

Abstract: The amount of credit available to a telephone travel card holder is determined immediately at the completion of a long distance call and the travel card is invalidated if no credit remains. Capture software captures call ticket data at the completion of a call and the ticket data is transmitted to a monitoring computer without delay. The monitoring computer calculates the amount of credit available to that caller and invalidates the travel card if no credit remains by transmitting a signal to all switching equipment stations throughout the telephone system.
