Abstract

A method of delivering an audio and/or visual media file including, for example, one or more of full or partial master recordings of songs, musical compositions, ringtones, videos, films, television shows, personal recordings, animation and combinations thereof, over the air wirelessly, from one or more servers to an electronic device with or without an Internet connection, said method comprising transmitting and audio and/or visual media file in compressed format to said electronic device, and wherein the electronic device is effective to receive said audio and/or visual file and playback said audio and/or visual content on demand by a user.

Claims (25)

1. A method of wirelessly delivering compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file to a cell phone, the method comprising:

providing a compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file for access over the Internet;

receiving a request from the cell phone, said cell phone including a receiver and digital signal processor configured for receiving and processing files transmitted by orthogonal frequency-division multiplex modulation (OFDM); and

providing for the transmission of the compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file to the cell phone by orthogonal frequency-division multiplex modulation based on the received request, wherein the transmission of the compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file is by a cellular data channel.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file is provided by a website.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising storing at least a portion of the compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file on the cell phone.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising optimizing the digital audio or audio-visual data file according to an optimization scheme.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file is attached to a library.

6. A method of wirelessly delivering compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file to a cell phone, the method comprising:

providing a compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file for access over the Internet;

receiving a request from the cell phone for the digital audio or audio-visual data file said cell phone including a receiver and digital signal processor configured for receiving and processing digital audio or audio-visual data files transmitted by orthogonal frequency-division multiplex modulation (OFDM);

providing for the streaming transmission of the compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file to the cell phone by orthogonal frequency-division multiplex modulation based on the received request.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file is provided by a website.

8. The method of claim 6 , further comprising storing at least a portion of the compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file on the cell phone.

9. The method of claim 6 , further comprising optimizing the digital audio or audio-visual data file according to an optimization scheme.

10. A method of wirelessly delivering compressed digital audio or audio-visual data files to a cell phone, the method comprising:

providing a representation of a library of compressed digital audio or audio-visual data files accessible via a website or a cell phone;

receiving a first request from a cell phone associated with a user for the representation of a library, said cell phone including a receiver and digital signal processor configured for receiving and processing digital audio or audio-visual data files transmitted by orthogonal frequency-division multiplex modulation (OFDM);

associating the user of the cell phone with the representation of the library of compressed digital audio or audio-visual data files; and

providing for the transmission of the representation of the library of the compressed digital audio or audio-visual data files to the cell phone by orthogonal frequency-division multiplex modulation based on the received first request;

receiving a second request from the cell phone selecting at least one compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file associated with the library;

providing for the transmission of the selected at least one compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file to the cell phone by orthogonal frequency-division multiplex modulation based on the received second request;

receiving a request via a website to modify a portion of the representation associated with the user of the cell phone; and

providing for the transmission of the modified portion of the representation of the library by orthogonal frequency-division multiplex modulation to the cell phone.

11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising storing at least a portion of the compressed digital audio or audio-visual data file on the cell phone.
