System And Method For Connecting Entertainment Media Servers To Local Video Shop Inventories

US Patent:
2008010, May 1, 2008
Filed:
Oct 30, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/928993
Inventors:
Robin Ross Cooper - La Mesa CA, US
Thomas A. Munro - La Jolla CA, US
International Classification:
G06Q 10/00, G06F 17/30, G06F 17/40, G06F 19/00
US Classification:
705 28
Abstract:
A video shop access system allows consumers to receive information on title inventories available at local video shops in the consumers' geographical area through their home or wireless media servers. A video shop data center receives title information on inventory available at the local video shops and stores the title information in an inventory data base. On receipt of a request from a consumer's media server, a video shop user interface is provided to the media server and displayed on an associated user display device, the user interface providing a link to the stored title inventories. The consumer can select and order titles through the interface, and orders are forwarded by the data center to the appropriate local video shop, which delivers a physical copy of the title to the requesting consumer.
