Benefits of technology

[0007]Another illustrative embodiment of a portable device for digital audio services is a portable device for seamless interactivity that comprises a transceiver to communicate with other devices over short-distance, radio-wave communications protocols like Bluetooth and takes advantage of embedded digital information like RDS or RDBS for obtaining content information. Herein, RDS (radio data system), RBDS (radio broadcast data system), embedded content, embedded signal, signal, and the like may be used interchangeably to refer generally to non-audible content that is broadcast with other audible content and that contains information

Problems solved by technology

However, these devices use fingerprinting technology that can identify a limited amount of audible content, for example published songs.
However, those devices require a second radio transc

Abstract

A system and method for providing digital audio services is described. One embodiment is a method for proving digital audio services, comprising receiving, using a communications interface, an audio stream from a content provider; determining a timestamp for a first audio stream segment; determining a timestamp for a second audio stream segment; updating playlist with a representation of the audio stream; receiving query for content information; and sending offer information, in response to receiving the query for content information.

Description

PRIORITY CLAIM[0001]This application claims priority to commonly-owned and assigned U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 551,307, filed Oct. 25, 2011, entitled Apparatus, System, and Method for Digital Audio Services and U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 670,491, filed Jul. 11, 2012, entitled Apparatus, System, and Method for Digital Audio Services, which are which are incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to portable devices and systems for providing audio services, including tagging content, purchasing content, and accepting offer content. The field of the invention includes the design and operation of systems and devices for tagging and managing audio content.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Current portable interactive devices can be used to tag songs for later purchase. However, these devices use fingerprinting technology that can identify a limited amount of audible content, for example published songs. Furthermore, the use...
