Embodiment Construction

[0035] Provided herein are systems and methods for enabling multiple users in a closed environment (such as one in which users do not have access to the Internet) to share media while retaining ownership of their media, and Also make sure their devices' processing power isn't overloaded with sharing. For example, using the systems and methods described in this document, users may be able to form a group (eg, via a wireless network hotspot) and transfer media between each other to expand entertainment options. Access controls can be implemented to ensure that media is returned to its rightful owner at the end of viewing, and that a user's viewing schedule is not interrupted by another user's desire.

[0036] The amount of content available to users in any given content delivery system can be considerable. Accordingly, many users desire a form of media guidance through an interface that allows users to efficiently browse content selections and easily identify content they may d...

Abstract

Provided herein are systems and methods for enabling multiple users in closed environments, such as environments where users do not have access to the Internet or have limited Internet access, to share content while retaining ownership of their media. media while ensuring that their devices' processing power is not overloaded with sharing. For example, users might be able to form a group and transfer media between each other. The system described herein can recommend content not only using content stored on a user's device, but also using content stored on the devices of other users of an established group. Access controls can be implemented to ensure that media is returned to its rightful owner at the end of viewing, and that a user's viewing schedule is not interrupted by another user's desire.

Description

Background technique [0001] This application claims priority and benefit to U.S. Utility Patent Application No. U.S.S.N. 15 / 010,602, filed January 29, 2016, and U.S. Utility Patent Application No. U.S.S.N. 15 / 010,676, filed January 29, 2016, They are hereby incorporated by reference. [0002] While the Internet is generally ubiquitous, there are times when access to the Internet is inaccessible or limited, such as when traveling on a plane, train, or bus. This user's entertainment choices are in these cases limited to entertainment that the user has stored on his personal user equipment device. Personal devices tend to have limited storage space, so often not enough entertainment can be stored for the user in this case. Contents of the invention [0003] Provided herein are systems and methods for enabling multiple users in a closed environment, such as an environment in which the users do not have access to the Internet, to share media while retaining ownership of their m...
