Method and apparatus to acquire the capital based on content through a technology sharing

摘要

A server [115] or client-based content storage unit includes a communication device [300] to receive data corresponding to a transfer of at least one of media content and a link to the media content, from a first user [120] to a second user [125]. The communication device [300] also receives data corresponding to usage of the media content by the second user [125], and transmits some representation of a content capital to the first user [120]. A content usage aggregator [315] receives information corresponding to the usage of the media content by the second user [125]. A content usage evaluator [310] determines the content capital based on an aggregation of monitored use of the media content by the second user [125].
