Abstract: This patent covers a process for automatically ordering permanent versions of individual songs or albums heard on satellite or digital radio stations. As the song is being played, existing RDS or other song/artist identification techniques are used to identify the recording label, artist, album and song. By pressing a button on the front of the radio, the listener can send a signal to a processing center and order the album or CD, or they may also purchase just the compressed version of the song suitable for playback using standard MP3 or equivalent technologies. The payment transaction occurs either through the radio subscription service or through a third-party service. A menu that appears during the purchasing process is used to select purchase of either the single song, the entire album or CD, and is also used to confirm the purchase.
