The user may use the karaoke application by accessing the server system 1000 through the application of his/her user terminal. Basically, through the karaoke application, the user can select the song he wants to sing, and at the same time listen to the background music of the song through earphones or the like, and record his own song through the microphone provided in the user terminal.

The application shown in Fig. 1 preferably corresponds to the aforementioned karaoke application. The user registers the user in the server system 1000 through a predetermined registration procedure provided by the application, and the application interacts with the user based on the data provided to the server system 1000 so that the user can use the karaoke application.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the application is a karaoke application, and posting, sponsorship, wallet confirmation, etc., which will be described later, may be performed through the karaoke application.

The server system 1000 may be configured by one or more computing devices including one or more memories and one or more processors. The server system 1000 manages the management and operation of the application, stores user information, sound source data, and song image data, and manages user points to be described later.

The server system 1000 may be configured as a single computing device, but in some embodiments of the present invention may be configured as a plurality of physically separated computing devices. In some embodiments of the present invention, the server system 1000 is a block chain network that transmits and receives data to and from the service server and/or the user terminal as well as a service server that directly transmits and receives data for an application operating in the user terminal may include.

As described above, the application may perform functions such as interaction with other users (eg, commenting) as well as the function of the karaoke application itself, as described above, but in the following, the user posts his/her own song image through the application. and, accordingly, the embodiments of the present invention will be described with a focus on sponsoring and distributing.

Figure 2 schematically shows the execution steps of the point distribution method of the karaoke application according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In the entire process of point distribution of the karaoke application, interaction with the aforementioned user terminal is required. Hereinafter, a point distribution method in a karaoke application performed in a server system according to an embodiment of the present invention from the viewpoint of the server system 1000 will be described.

In step S100, a posting step of posting the song image received from the user terminal of the song image provider who wants to post the song image so that a third party can read it is performed.

In step S100 , the song image is always posted in the server system 1000 . After that, the song image can be checked by a third party through an application or the like. In step S100, the song image provider may sponsor or grant points to their song image. Through this, more supporters may be recruited in step S200.

In step S200, the posted song image is provided to a user terminal of a third party for a first preset period, and the first sponsor including information on points to be sponsored from the user terminal of the sponsor who wishes to sponsor the song image. A first support step of receiving information and accumulating points for the corresponding song image is performed.

In step S200, points sponsored by users for the corresponding song image are accumulated. In step S200, information on points (initial point + first support point) accumulated in the song image together with the song image may be provided to a third party.

In step S300, after the first period has elapsed, the posted song image is provided to the user terminal of a third party for a second preset period, and the user terminal of the sponsor who wishes to sponsor the song image is sent to the point to be sponsored. A second support step of receiving the second support information including information about the song and accumulating points for the corresponding song image is performed.

In step S300, points sponsored by users for the corresponding song image are accumulated. In step S200, information on points (initial point + first support point + second support point) accumulated in the corresponding song image together with the song image may be provided to a third party.

Preferably, the period during which the second support step is performed is longer than the period during which the first support step is performed. For example, the period during which the first support stage is performed may correspond to one week, and the period during which the second support stage is performed may correspond to four weeks.

In step S400, a distribution step of distributing the accumulated points for the corresponding song image to the user who posted the corresponding song image and the user sponsored during the first period is performed.

Through this process, an incentive for providing a song image can be given to a song image provider, and an incentive for sponsorship can be given to a supporter sponsored in the first support step.

Since the sponsors in the first support step can expect not only to support the song image but also to distribute the proceeds according to the details of the support in the second support step, the distribution method of the present invention allows more users to use the server. You can participate in the service provided by the system 1000 . The user can generate revenue by sponsoring a song image that he or she considers to be promising in the first sponsoring step.

In addition, in the second sponsoring step, it may correspond to people who purely sponsor the corresponding song image.

Preferably, the points accumulated for the song image through the above process are distributed to the song image provider, the sponsor in the first support stage, and the system operating entity. Through such distribution, it is possible to induce more song image providers to participate, and at the same time, it can induce song image providers to post higher-quality song images. At the same time, more users who can become sponsors can participate in this service, and can induce their sponsorship activities more actively.

In addition, by distributing the accumulated points to the system operating entity who operates the entire server system 1000 or a part of the server system 1000, the system operating entity operates the server system 1000 according to the embodiment of the present invention, Since it is possible to generate revenue by paying the cost of copyright for music, etc., it is possible to exert the effect of maintaining a free form of karaoke application.

Alternatively, the system operating entity may directly include the copyright holder.

FIG. 3 shows an example of holding points in each account or wallet of a user, a system, and a song image in the server system 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In an embodiment of the present invention, each user account that can post for one's own song image or perform sponsorship for another's song image has its own wallet (or address), and the server system (1000) information about the points held in each wallet is recorded.

The user may use or deduct points from his/her wallet to store a song image, post a song image, or sponsor someone else's song image.

Similarly, each song image has its own wallet (or address), and information on points held in each wallet is recorded in the server system 1000 . When the user sponsors the corresponding song image through the first and second support steps, points held in the wallet of the corresponding song image are accumulated.

After that, when the second support step is completed, the points accumulated in the song video are distributed to the supporter's wallet, the song video provider's wallet, and the system operating entity's wallet in the first support step.

Similarly, the system operating entity has its own wallet (or address), and information on points held in each wallet is recorded in the server system 1000 . The wallet of the system operating entity may be implemented as a plurality of wallets instead of a single wallet.

In one embodiment of the present invention, information on points held in each wallet described above may be recorded in the server system 1000 in the form of total points held in each wallet, but in another embodiment of the present invention, each Transactions that occurred in the wallet of , are recorded in the server system 1000, and the holding points in each wallet may be derived by synthesizing the transactions.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the wallet may mean a wallet referred to in a block chain network system. In an embodiment of the present invention, the wallet may be implemented by an encryption key related to a digital signature. For example, the server system 1000 applies the asymmetric key method, the address of the corresponding wallet corresponds to the public key, and the transaction for the wallet is signed by the private key input or stored in the user terminal, and the server system ( 1000) may be implemented in the form of verification.

4 schematically illustrates the detailed steps of a posting step according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In step S101, the server system 1000 provides song information to be recorded to the user terminal. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a list of songs to be recorded may be provided according to a user's input (eg, a search input, a category input, etc.).

In step S102, the user selects a song to be recorded by the user through input from the application.

In step S103, the server system 1000 provides a background sound source for recording to the user terminal of the song image provider. The background sound source may correspond to accompaniment, MR, or accompaniment sound source.

In step S104, the user terminal reproduces the received background sound source, and the user listens to the background sound source through earphones or the like, and records through a microphone provided in the user terminal. In one embodiment of the present invention, only voice may be recorded, but in another embodiment of the present invention, an image of a user singing a song may be recorded while voice recording is performed. Alternatively, voice recording and/or video recording may be performed according to the user's selection.

In step S105, the server system 1000 receives audio information or audio information and image information recorded from the user terminal of the song image provider, and in step S106, the background sound source according to the input of the song image provider. A server storage step of storing the audio information or the song image in which the audio information and the image information are combined in the server system 1000 is performed.

Preferably, the user can check the recording performed through step S104 in his/her terminal, but in order to save it, after storing it in the server system 1000 through steps S105 and S106, the server system through the application You can check your own song image stored in (1000).

More preferably, in order to perform step S107, the user must pay a certain point to the server system 1000 from his/her wallet. The points paid in this way can be returned when the user deletes the corresponding song or leaves the server system 1000 . This performs a kind of staking of points by depositing (DEPOSIT) some of the points that can flow from wallets existing in the server system 1000 to an account related to the system operating entity, and accordingly, even if there is no change in the total amount of points This is to increase the value of the points by reducing the points that can be moved. In particular, when the point is a virtual currency operated by a block chain network, there is an advantage that the value of the virtual currency can be further increased through such staking.

In step S108, the song image provider requests posting of the song image stored through the application, and in step S109, according to the input of the song image provider, a third party can view the song image stored in the server system 1000. Execute the post input step for posting.

Preferably, in steps S108 and S109, the song image provider can self-sponsor the song image that he/she wants to post. This is because, as will be described later, the display order of the list of song images posted in the first support step is determined based on the points accumulated in the corresponding song image.

Accordingly, the user may sponsor points for his/her song image so that his/her song image is initially exposed to more people in the first sponsoring stage.

That is, in the posting step, point information input for the corresponding song image can be received from the song image provider, and in the first support step, the order is arranged according to the accumulated support points for each song image, It is provided to a third party user terminal.

In one embodiment of the present invention, based on the amount of points sponsored by themselves in the above-described steps S108 and S109, the distribution of points to the song image provider in the distribution step may be determined. That is, the more the song image provider sponsors the points themselves in S108 and S109, the higher the amount of points they can receive in the subsequent distribution step.

That is, as described above, in the server storage step and/or the posting input step, the points held by the song image provider may be reduced.

Preferably, the points to be used by the song image provider in the server storage step are fixed to a certain amount, and the points used by the song image provider in the posting input step can be set by the user.
