Abstract:
1. A system including a server with a processor and a memory for communicating a segmented digital media content work between interconnected networked computer systems, comprising: a subscription server, configured to receive publication subscription information interactively entered from a publication service subscriber, said subscription server causing said publication subscription information to be stored, said publication subscription information comprises publication subscriber account data, and publication subscription control data (SCData), said subscription server, responsive to said publication subscription information, causing a media server to transmit segmented digital media content work on a scheduled basis to said service subscriber, said SCData of said publication subscription information further indicating a particular segmented digital media content work (sDMCWork) to be transmitted, said SCData further indicating a current segment of said sDMCWork to be transmitted, said publication subscriber account data associated with said SCData recording the network delivery method of said segment of said sDMCWork, in which said sDMCWork comprises a unitary digital media content work (DMCWork) which has been subdivided into a plurality of segments and further comprises readable text with said scheduled basis of transmission comprising an interval sufficient to read said text between transmissions, and said DMCWork further comprises a digital representation of an integrated body of content initially created as a unitary and complete body of content wherein said initially created body of content is content sequentially related in a single directed sequence from a beginning of said body of content to an end of said body of content, said plurality of segments comprise the entirety of said unitary DMCWork with said digital representation of said initially created body of content requiting a plurality of segments to completely contain said representation, and each of said segments comprises a contiguous length of said DMCWork indicated by a start position and an end position within said unitary DMCWork, said start position and said end position within said unitary DMCWork being related to each other identically as said directed sequence of said initially created body of content relates the respective content elements of said body of content to each other, and said subscription server updates said SCData upon transmission of said current sDMCWork segment so that said SCData indicate the next sequential segment of said sDMCWork.
