VIDEO PLAYER WITH ENHANCED CONTENT ORDERING AND METHOD OF ACQUIRING CONTENT

摘要

A distributed multimedia player allows a user to purchase multimedia regardless of the website or environment upon which the multimedia is encountered. The player may be hosted by self-contained servers or by modules within third-party servers. The player can provide multimedia to a user in a third party server, allow the user to change the content of a playlist, create previews associated with multimedia files, insert multimedia in a third party server, or locate multimedia based on social media connections. The player may also provide video advertisements, with the ability to mute selectively an associated audio track, and may provide the ability to purchase a product associated with the video advertisement. The player provides the user with added speed and convenience over previous players that required the user to obtain information about a multimedia file or product then purchase the product at a separate provider.
