Abstract
An on-screen interface for commerce over a broadcast video network includes a first window configured to display a list identifying one or more products, a second window configured to simultaneously display broadcast video programming, and a third window configured to display detailed information regarding a product selected by the user from the list of products displayed in the first window. The list of products may be associated with the received broadcast video programming or correspond to a user preference. The user may input for transmission over the broadcast video network, requests to purchase the selected product, obtain further information regarding the selected product, and save the identity of the selected product for the user's future use.
