Communications system with automatic download capability
First Claim
1. A communication system including a service provider network and a communication device with a user interface and transceiver circuitry, the communication device is operable to download content from the service provider network, to be provided to the user interface, that is tailored depending on local conditions, the communication system comprising:
- local parameters defining the local conditions of a user of the communication device; and
predetermined user preferences defining a content profile for the user, the user preferences are stored in a memory file and are coder per the local parameters, wherein local parameters that are input will automatically key the user preferences for use as a search engine filter to find content associated with the local conditions, wherein found content is automatically downloaded to the communication device to be played back to the user via the user interface.

Abstract
An apparatus and method is provided for a communication system with automatic download capability from a service provider network. The downloaded content is tailored depending on local conditions. Local parameters defined by the local conditions are coded and input. User preferences defining a content profile for a user are stored in a memory file and are coder per the local parameters. The local parameters automatically key the user preferences for use as a search engine filter to find content associated with the local conditions. Any found content is automatically downloaded to the communication device to be played back to the user via a user interface.

13. A communication system including a service provider network and a communication device with a user interface and transceiver circuitry, the communication device is operable to download music content from the service provider network, to be provided to the user interface, that is tailored depending on local conditions, the communication system comprising:
-
local parameters defining the local conditions of a user of the communication device; and
predetermined user preferences defining a music content profile for the user, the user preferences are stored in a memory file on the service provider network and are coder per the local parameters, wherein local parameters that are input will automatically key the user preferences for use as a search engine filter to find music content associated with the local conditions, wherein found music content is automatically downloaded to the communication device to be played back to the user via the user interface.

18. A method for a service provider to automatically download content to a communication device for output to a user interface, the method comprising the steps of:
-
defining local parameters corresponding to local conditions of a user of the communication device;
storing predetermined user preferences in a memory file wherein the user preferences define a content profile for the user and are keyed to the defined local parameters;
coding local conditions to define local parameters;
inputting local parameters to key the user preferences for use as a search engine filter to find content associated with the local conditions; and
downloading automatically the found content to the communication device to be played back to the user via a user interface.
