System and method for selective updating of media files
First Claim
1. A media content delivery system, comprising:
- a database for storing a plurality of media files;
a user input device for selecting media files in said database to be outputted;
an output device for outputting of selected media files;
an external data interface for receiving media files;
an integrated circuit card interface adapted to hold an integrated circuit card having encoded thereon criteria for accepting media files for storage in said database; and
a controller responsive to selection by said user input device of one of the media files stored in said database, to apply the selected media file to said output device for outputting, and responsive to receipt by said external data interface of media files, to store in said media database only media files received by said external data interface which meet criteria on an integrated circuit card held in said integrated circuit card interface.

Abstract
A media content delivery system and a process of updating files in a database of a media content delivery system. The media content delivery system includes a database for storing media files, a user input device for selecting media files in the database to be outputted, an output device for outputting of selected media files, an external data interface for receiving media files, an integrated circuit card interface adapted to hold an integrated circuit card having encoded thereon criteria for accepting media files for storage in the database, and a controller responsive to selection by the user input device of one of the media files stored in the database, to apply the selected media file to the output device for outputting, and responsive to receipt by the external data interface of media files, to store in the media database only media files received by the external data interface which meet criteria on an integrated circuit card in the integrated circuit card interface. The process of updating files in a database of a media content delivery system includes the steps of receiving at the media content delivery system an integrated circuit card having encoded thereon criteria for selecting media files, receiving at the media content delivery system at least one media file, and storing in the database of the media content delivery system only media files received at the media content delivery system which meet the criteria on the integrated circuit card.
