System and method for augmenting rich media content using multiple content repositories
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method of providing second content to a user via retrieval from a content repository over a plurality of networks, comprising:
- receiving a selection of first content selected by a userattempting to automatically identify second content which was not selected by the user but which is related to first content which was selected by the user, based on metadata associated with the first content;
when the second content is identified, automatically retrieving second content from the content repository based on the first content being selected by the user and storing the retrieved second content in a media storage that is separate from the content repository;
providing a report of available content to the user, wherein the report includes one of;
an indicator associated with the first content for selection when the second content is not identified; and
an indicator associated with the second content without any indicator associated with the first content when the second content is identified;
presenting the second content to the user from the media storage upon selection of the indicator associated with the second content by the user.

Abstract
Computer-implemented systems and methods for determining second content which was not selected by the user but which is related to first content which was selected by the user. For example, a system and method can be configured to receive, using one or more processors, first and second content where the first and second content are rich media (e.g., content containing audio or video elements). Systems and methods may be further configured where the relationship between the first content and second content are determined based on data or metadata of the first content (e.g., the title of the content or an episode number). Systems and methods may be further configured where the relationship between the first content and second content are determined based on scheduling data of the first content (e.g., the time and channel when the first content is transmitted).

23. A computer-implemented system of providing content to a user via communications between a content provider and a user over a plurality of disparate transmission channels, comprising:
-
one or more processors; a computer-readable memory encoded with instructions for the one or more processors to execute steps that include; receiving a selection of first content selected by a user attempting to automatically identify second content which was not selected by the user but which is related to first content which was selected by the user, based on metadata associated with the first content; when the second content is identified, automatically retrieving second content from the content repository based on the first content being selected by the user and storing the retrieved second content in a media storage that is separate from the content repository; providing a report of available content to the user, wherein providing the report includes; providing an indicator associated with the first content for selection when the second content is not identified; and providing an indicator associated with the second content without any indicator associated with the first content when the second content is identified; presenting the second content to the user from the media storage upon selection of the indicator associated with the second content by the user. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44)
