Digital media management system and method
First Claim
1. A system for managing digital media data files, owned by a user, over a network, comprising:
- at least one processor;
at least one database, communicatively connected to said at least one processor, for storing at least one data file;
at least one computing device, remote from said at least one processor and communicatively connected to said at least one processor via the network, wherein said at least one computing device is capable of uploading said at least one data file and subsequently managing selected ones of said at least one data file, wherein said user provides a first information item relating to an accessibility of said at least one computing device to said at least one processor;
at least one service provider, remote from said at least one processor and communicatively connected to said at least one processor via said network, wherein said at least one service provider provides a second information item, relating to a capability of said at least one computing device in accordance with said first information item, to said at least one processor; and
wherein said at least one processor allows remote access to certain of said selected ones of said at least one data file by said at least one computing device based substantially on said first and second information items.

Abstract
A system and method for managing digital media data files owned by a user via a network are disclosed. The system and method include at least one processor and at least one database, communicatively connected to the at least one processor, for storing at least one data file, and at least one computing device, remote from the at least one processor and communicatively connected to the at least one processor via a network. The at least one computing device is capable of uploading the at least one data file and subsequently accessing selected ones of the at least one data file, where the user provides a first information item relating to the at least one computing device to the at least one processor. The system and method also include at least one information provider, remote from the at least one processor and communicatively connected to the at least one processor via the network, wherein the at least one information provider provides a second information item relating to the at least one computing device and based on the first information to the at least one processor, where the at least one processor manages the access to the selected ones of the at least one data file by the at least one computing device based on the first and second information items.
