Abstract
A method and system for providing supplementary content to the user of a stored-media-content device is presented whereby the supplementary content is filtered at least in part based on the inventory of media content accessible to the device. The system includes a program operable on a media player to generate a request for supplementary content responsive to a selection by a user of one or more of available media content stored on or accessible to the media player. A filter module is operable on the supplementary content generated responsive to the request to create a filtered subset of the supplementary content. The filter module is further operable to create the filtered subset in consideration of the available media content stored on or accessible to the media player. The subset of supplementary content is then presented to the user at the media player.
