Abstract
Description
- This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/794,495, entitled PERSONALIZED CONTENT GENERATION AND DELIVERY, filed on Mar. 11, 2013 which claims priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 61/701,243, entitled PERSONALIZED CONTENT GENERATION AND DELIVERY, filed on Sep. 14, 2012, which are hereby incorporated by reference as if set forth in full in this application for all purposes.
- With the advent of digital music downloadable to portable devices it has become more difficult to attach a “look and feel” to music or to personalize gifts of music. When gifting music embodied in tangible media it is possible to attach notes, comments and pictures to personalize the gift. Digital downloads do not afford such opportunities.
- MP3 players come in a variety of different styles and looks. Almost all MP3 players provide the user with audio and visual content and can be used to download and listen to songs. Along with audio content, a downloaded MP3 file includes metadata that can include an album or song cover. When the MP3 player is used to listen to the song the album or song cover is displayed by the device.
- One example embodiment is a web service that provides for personalization of digital music files using a graphical user interface (GUI) displayed on a client computer. User interface pages are displayed to allow a user to select music files, select pictures to associate with files to create personalized music files, and to publish or gift the personalized music files to friends, colleagues or the user.
- In an example embodiment, a server computer receives an identification of a selected song, an associated picture, a gift recipient address and a personalized message from a client computer over a network. The server application deletes the album art picture from the metadata, overlays the album art picture over a portion of the associated picture to form an overlaid associated picture and inserts the overlaid associated picture into the metadata to form a personalized song music file.
- In an example embodiment, the server bundles all personalized song files intended for a particular recipient and emails a tokenized URL to the intended recipient that allows the intended recipient to download the bundled personalized song files.
- In another example embodiment, the user pays for the songs using internet payment protocols prior to personalizing the music files.
- In another example embodiment, an application is downloaded to a user device so that personalization of music files and publishing of music files is performed on the user device.
- A further understanding of the nature and the advantages of particular embodiments disclosed herein may be realized by reference to the remaining portions of the specification and the attached drawings.

FIG. 1 depicts aweb client 12 coupled to aweb server 14 by the internet. In this example theweb client 12 is executing abrowser application 16 that communicates withweb components 18 using HTTP Request and Response messages. Techniques for implementing browser applications and web components are well-known in the art and will not be described further herein. -
FIG. 2 depicts a simplified block diagram of acomputer system 200 that may be used to implement the web client or web server. AsFIG. 2 shows, thecomputer system 200 includes aprocessor 202, amemory 204, anoperating system 206, an application orlogic 208 and a network interface card (NIC) 210. The application orlogic 208 is stored on any suitable storage location or non-transitory computer-readable medium, such asmemory 204.Application 208 provides instructions that enableprocessor 202 to perform the functions described herein. - A first example embodiment will now be described with reference to the flow chart of
FIG. 3 . The user logs on 302 to a music personalization web site where a user is a person interacting with the client computer. After user log on, the web server generates a first user interface page to allow the user to select asong 304 forpersonalization 304 and the first user interface page is displayed on the user's computer. Alternatively, the user may select apicture 306 for association with a song. The step of selecting a song first and then associating a picture will now be described. - An example of the first
user interface page 400 is depicted inFIG. 4 . A row ofsong selection blocks 402 is displayed along with aselected playlist 404. Theplaylist 404 is selected by browsing or searching a catalog of music. The first user interface page also includes an “Add Song”button 406 and a “Publish”button 408. - In this example, the user selects a song first and then associates a picture with the song. When the user selects a song the title of the song is displayed in the first available song selection block 402 (in this example the song selection block labeled “1”) and a
picture selection icon 410 is displayed in thesong selection block 402. - When the
picture selection icon 410 is pressed the web server creates a second user interface page that is displayed on the client computer. - An example of the second
user interface page 500 is depicted inFIG. 5 . An “Add Your Photo”block 510 is displayed that includes buttons for selecting the source of a photo to be associated with the selected song. Examples of photo sources include third parties such as FaceBook, Flickr, DropBox, etc. or a directory on the user's computers or other computers connected by a network. - Subsequent to source selection by the user a third user interface page is displayed that shows a photo, picture, group of photos or group of pictures displayed in the source on the user computer in the source format and also displays an “Add Photo” button. The user selects a picture by, for example, moving a selector over the picture to be selected and clicking the Add Photo button or by dragging and dropping a selected photo to the “Add Photo” button.
- Subsequent to photo selection by the us402 a fourth user interface page is displayed that shows the selected photo displayed in the song selection block. An example of the fourth
user interface page 600 is depicted inFIG. 6 . - The process of selecting songs and associating pictures with the selected songs may be repeated with each new selected song and associated picture displayed in one of the song selection blocks 31 of the first user interface page.
- Referring back to
FIG. 3 , subsequent to matching a photo to music the steps of gifting the personalizedmusic 308, purchasing the personalizedmusic 310, building the personalizedMP3s 312, and delivering the personalizedMP3s 314 are performed. - In this example embodiment, the user is provided with a web service that allows the user to gift the customized music to friends, family, or him or herself. The gifting process begins by pushing the “Publish”
button 408 of the firstuser interface page 400. - Subsequent to the user pushing the “Publish”
button 408 user interface pages for entering contact information of the gift recipient and a personalized message are displayed on the client computer. The contact information and personalized message are entered by the user and sent to the server computer over the internet. - Payment for the selected songs is performed using standard web-based payment procedures such as PayPal, Google Wallet, credit card payment etc.
- Subsequent to payment, in an example embodiment, a personalized MP3 is built at the server computer and delivered to the gift recipient.
-
FIG. 7 is a flow chart illustrating the steps performed by the server computer to build and deliver the selected, personalized music. - Referring to
FIG. 7 , inprocess step 702 the server computer application receives information regarding the song selected, the photo to be associated with the song selected, the address (for example email address) of the gift recipient and the personalized message. - In
process step 704, the server computer application embeds the album cover art of the selected song over a portion of the associated photo to form an overlaid associated photo. - In
process step 706 the server computer application deletes the album cover stored in the metadata file of the MP3 of the selected song and inprocess step 708 inserts the overlaid associated photo into the metadata to create a personalized MP3 file for the selected song that will display the overlaid associated photo when the song is played on any MP3 player that can display an album cover. - Finally, in
process step 710 the personalized MP3 file is sent to the gift recipient along with the personalized message. Personalized MP3 files intended for a particular recipient are bundled. In one example embodiment an email is sent to a gift recipient that includes a tokenized URL that when clicked initiates a download of the bundled files intended for that gift recipient. - An advantage to content providers is that a user is incentivized to purchase multiple copies of the same song in order to personalize the song in different ways. An example that can result in the purchasing of thirty-four copies of the same song is depicted in
FIG. 8 . Referring toFIG. 8 , in this example the user supplies a title for her creation on the individual song/picture level or for a grouping of songs/pictures. This title is then placed as the new title for each MP3. In addition, the server application defines additional metadata in the file to categorize this type of MP3 as part of a “pimi compilation” so as not to clutter the user's digital music library of MP3s. - For example, as depicted in
FIG. 8 , two copies of the song are bought as a gift for delivery to Jason and Danielle and have the title “Our favorite song in high school” and a selected photo. Six copies of the song are bought as a gift for delivery to Jason, Alba, Troy, Amy, Brian and Steve and have the title “Dedicated to Jake” and a selected photo. Twenty-six copies of the song are bought as a gift for twenty-six people who attended a party and have the title “Remember that insane party” and a selected photo. -
FIG. 9 illustrates a method that allows the user to choose an existing picture or take a new picture with her device, then select a song, album or a grouping of songs compiled into a “playlist” and associate the selected song, album or grouping of song with the picture. The user can then make a note or “tag” each person in the picture and/or make note or “tag” the location where the picture was taken, categorize the picture and music using descriptive text known as “hashtags” and apply a filter to the picture to change the appearance and quality of the picture. The user can also apply a title or description of all the information and content mentioned above. The user then submits her creation and the new content is made available to other people to view, share on social networks and/or buy and/or gift. - Although the invention has been described with respect to particular embodiments thereof, these particular embodiments are merely illustrative, and not restrictive. For example, embodiments of the invention may apply to any type of music file that includes editable metadata. Further, instead of being provided by a web service the functions described above may be implemented by an application downloaded to a smart phone, personal digital assistant, or Pad device.
