Digital media communication systems and methods are disclosed in which a set of end points and/or clients are in communication with a set of servers. The system is capable of determining which end point is a dominant user and/or speaker. When the system determines that an end point is dominant, then the digital data that emanates from dominant end point is preferred. Such preferred digital data may be forwarded asynchronously and possible ahead of digital data from other, non-dominant end points. Synchronous and/or substantially contemporaneous digital data from other end points may be mixed that such that, when rendered, gives substantially the same effect real life superposition of signals. The system may also toggle on or off between states of asynchronous forward and synchronous-only modes.
