Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004111882A1] The present invention provides a general solution to presenting media interface (103) and navigation tools for content (109) provided from a plurality of sources. The invention maintains a user at a single site regardless of the source of the media content (109). This permits a consistent interface to be presented to the user. Because the user remains at the same site, differences in tiered membership may be tracked so that the user is only presented with content that the user is permitted to view. The invention uses a metadata language to characterize content so that viewer type, membership level, and other information can be maintained and used for an enjoyable viewing experience.
