Method for media sharing based on location proximity
First Claim
1. A method for sharing songs stored on a cloud music storage, comprising:
- identifying at a computing system that a first user and a second user are connected to their respective music accounts on the cloud music storage;
identifying at the computing system configuration data for each of the first and second users, the configuration data identifying sharing privileges as respectively defined by the first and second users;
monitoring at the computing system location proximity between the first and second users;
initiating the sharing privileges for certain songs between the first and second users when the monitored location proximity changes to be within a distance threshold;
providing a notification to the first user when the sharing privileges of the second user identify songs that are sharable with the first user;
disabling the monitoring of the location proximity between the first and second users when at least one of the first and second users moves faster than a predetermined speed; and
enabling the monitoring of the location proximity between the first and second users when both of the first and second users move slower than the predetermined speed.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for sharing songs stored on a cloud music storage. One method includes identifying a first user and a second user who are connected to their respective music accounts and identifying the configuration data for each of the first and second users. The configuration data identify sharing privileges as respectively defined by the first and second users. The method also includes monitoring the location proximity between the first user and second user and initiating the sharing privileges for certain songs between the first and second users when the monitored location proximity changes to be within a distance threshold. A notification to the first user is provided when the sharing privileges of the second user identify songs that are sharable with the first user.

12. A system for sharing songs stored on a cloud music storage, comprising:
a processor communicatively coupled to a memory device, comprising; music library access logic configured to identify that a first and second users are accessing their respective music accounts on the cloud music storage of the memory device; share configuration logic configured to identify configuration data for each of the first and second users, the configuration data identifying sharing privileges as respectively defined by the first and second users; share enable logic configured to; monitor location proximity between the first and second users, initiate the sharing privileges for certain songs between the first and second users when the monitored location proximity changes to be within a distance threshold, provide a notification to the first user when the sharing privileges of the second user identify songs that are sharable with the first user; disable the monitoring of the location proximity between the first and second users when at least one of the first and second users moves faster than a predetermined speed; and enable the monitoring of the location proximity between the first and second users when both of the first and second users move slower than the predetermined speed. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoding instructions for sharing songs stored on a cloud music storage that, in response to execution by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform operations comprising:
-
identifying at a computing system that a first user and a second user are connected to their respective music accounts on the cloud music storage; identifying at the computing system configuration data for each of the first and second users, the configuration data identifying sharing privileges as respectively defined by the first and second users; monitoring at the computing system location proximity between the first and second users; initiating the sharing privileges for certain songs between the first and second users when the monitored location proximity changes to be within a distance threshold; providing a notification to the first user when the sharing privileges of the second user identify songs that are sharable with the first user; disabling the monitoring of the location proximity between the first and second users when at least one of the first and second users moves faster than a predetermined speed; and enabling the monitoring of the location proximity between the first and second users when both of the first and second users move slower than the predetermined speed.
