    摘要: A collection management system, or virtual jukebox, is provided for a collection of recordings that is independent of the physical media upon which the material is recorded. The system forms a part of a network that includes storage media and playback devices, and provides an easy to use system for collection cataloging, archiving, and retrieval. In a preferred embodiment, a collection management system resides on a consumer electronic (CE) device, or a personal or home computer (PC), and the collection includes recordings that are stored on one or more hard drives associated with the CE device or the PC. The collection management system includes a user interface that facilitates the retrieval of recordings for playback from one or more storage devices, based on an individual selection of genre, author, and so on. By storing the recordings on a hard disc drive or other mass storage device with an associated disk operating system, immediate access is available to each recording on the drive, and additional drives can be added to the system as new material is added to the collection.

    摘要: A system, method, and article of manufacture suitable for transmitting a programmable message in place of or intermixed into a streaming media data stream to a receiving device upon receipt of an event is disclosed. The system comprises an Internet data communications network interface; at least one sending device, operatively connected to the data communications network interface and capable of transmitting a predetermined alert based on the event to a predetermined receiving device upon the occurrence of the event; a persistent data store comprising a predetermined set of selectively retrievable messages; a monitor operatively in communication with both the sending device and an Internet provider of a data stream, the monitor able to selectively access the messages resident on the persistent data store; and messaging software capable of detecting events, selecting at least one of the selectively retrievable messages based on the event, modifying the data stream in a predetermined manner with at least a portion of the selected retrievable message, and transmitting the modified data stream to a predetermined receiving device.
