摘要： A method of operating a digital media purchase system includes, within the digital media purchase system, receiving a unique promotional code from one of a plurality of consumers via a data network. The receipt is in association with a user account of the one consumer with the digital media purchase system. A database associated with the media purchase system is processed to determine particular digital media items associated with the received one promotional code. A user account of the one consumer with the media purchase system is configured to enable access to the determined particular digital media from the media purchase system.

摘要： Systems and methods for upgrading from one or more digital media assets to a set of digital media assets over a network are described. A potential purchaser can be notified of available upgrade opportunities that are available for purchase. The potential purchaser can elect to pursue an upgrade opportunity so as to purchase a set of digital media assets. Upon upgrading to the set of digital media assets, the digital media assets within the set of digital media assets are made available to the purchaser. Typically, on upgrading from one or more of the digital media assets in the set of digital media assets to the entire set of digital media assets, the purchaser pays a lower cost than would be otherwise charged if the purchaser were to purchase the set of digital media assets in a non-upgrade manner. The cost associated with an upgrade opportunity can be based on prior purchases of digital media assets in the set of digital media assets. The cost associated with an upgrade opportunity can also be dynamically adjusted if other digital media assets in the set of digital media assets are subsequently purchased.

摘要翻译： 描述了通过网络从一个或多个数字媒体资产升级到一组数字媒体资产的系统和方法。 可以通知潜在购买者可以购买的可用升级机会。 潜在购买者可以选择追求升级机会，以购买一套数字媒体资产。 在升级到数字媒体资产集合之后，数字媒体资产集合中的数字媒体资产可以提供给买方。 通常，在从数字媒体资产集中的一个或多个数字媒体资产升级到整套数字媒体资产的同时，如果购买者要购买数字媒体资产的集合，购买者的成本将低于其他收费的成本 媒体资产以非升级方式进行。 与升级机会相关的成本可以基于以前在数字媒体资产集中购买数字媒体资产。 如果随后购买了一组数字媒体资产中的其他数字媒体资产，则还可以动态调整与升级机会相关的成本。

摘要： Systems, graphical user interfaces and methods for upgrading from one or more digital media assets to a set of digital media assets over a network are described. A potential purchaser can be notified of available upgrade opportunities that are available for purchase. The potential purchaser can elect to pursue an upgrade opportunity so as to purchase a set of digital media assets. Upon upgrading to the set of digital media assets, the digital media assets within the set of digital media assets are made available to the purchaser. According to one aspect, a graphical user interface facilitates presenting and requesting upgrade opportunities. According to another aspect, equivalency rules and/or eligibility rules can be used to control which sets of digital media assets are available for upgrade by respective potential purchasers.
