receiving by the content management and distribution system data representative of at least one environment conditions that is collected by one or more environment condition sensing devices operatively cooperating with the at least one display system, the environment conditions comprising at least one physical environment condition relating to dispensing a beverage, the at least one display system being operatively connected to a communications network providing at least one data service comprising one of voice service, television service and broadband connectivity service, and at least one physical environment condition occurring within a predetermined distance from the at least one display system comprising;
a number of people, an occurrence of a commercial transaction, an occurrence of at least one physical gesture from at least one person, an utterance of spoken words, a movement of the at least one person, an interaction with at least one data element on the at least one display system, a shape of the at least one person, an amount of hair on the at least one person, a presence of facial hair on the at least one person, a height of the at least one person, a skin tone of the at least one person, a presence of makeup on the at least one person, a length of time the at least one person looks at the at least one display system, a number of beverages being dispensed, and a type of beverage being dispensed;
applying by the content management and distribution system the selected set of selection criteria and the data representative of the at least one environment condition in querying content data residing on the data store to select content for distribution; and
communicating the selected content to at least one display system.

Abstract
A system configured to manage the distribution of content to one or more cooperating media/substrates in beverage dispensing environments, wherein the system receives data representative of environment conditions for one or more cooperating media/substrates adapted to display digital content, where the media/substrates may be located in beverage environments (e.g., bar/restaurants, hotels, or event venues), and where the system compares the received data representative of environment conditions regarding the purchase of a beverage with selection criteria to identify content for distribution to the media/substrates such that the selected content is distributed to the one or more cooperating media/substrates.
