DYNAMIC LOCATION-BASED MEDIA COLLECTION AGGREGATION
First Claim
1. A method of operation of a server computer to generate an aggregate media collection catalog for a first user, comprising:
- identifying one or more second users that are geographically proximate to the first user; and
in response to determining that the one or more second users are geographically proximate to the first user, dynamically aggregating at least a portion of media collection catalogs of the one or more second users into the aggregate media collection catalog of the first user.

Abstract
A cloud-based media aggregation system that aggregates media collections of geographically proximate users is disclosed. In one embodiment, the media aggregation system determines that a first user and one or more second users are geographically proximate to one another. In response, the media aggregation system dynamically aggregates at least a portion of media collection catalogs of the one or more second users with a media collection catalog of the first user to provide an aggregate media collection catalog of the first user. The media aggregation system may control an extent of the aggregation based on pre-defined criteria.

10. A server computer comprising:
-
a communication interface communicatively coupling the server computer to a network; and a controller associated with the communication interface adapted to, in order to generate an aggregate media collection catalog of a first user; identify one or more second users that are geographically proximate to the first user; and in response to determining that the one or more second users are geographically proximate to the first user, dynamically aggregate at least a portion of media collection catalogs of the one or more second users into the aggregate media collection catalog of the first user. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
