Abstract:
A system for distributed content distribution is presented which enables and facilitates distributed content programming. According to the system, a list of content segments that make up an episode and episode metadata are distributed from server to client. The client uses the list of content segments and the episode metadata to present a streamlined viewing experience to the user, notwithstanding different locations, formats, encoding schemes, and packetization schemes of the content underlying the list of content segments.

Claim (Index 7):
A distributed content system for delivering content comprising:\n a client device, configured to communicate with a first server, a second server, and a third server, wherein the client device comprises computer instructions for performing the following:\n sending an episode identifier to the first server, \n receiving, in response to the first server's receipt of the episode identifier, a list of content segments and episode metadata, wherein the list of content segments comprises a first content resource locator and a second content resource locator, and wherein the episode metadata comprises an episode length, wherein the list of content segments comprises at least one advertisement content segment and at least one content segment not associated with an advertisement, \n sending a first request for a first content segment to the second server using the first content resource locator, \n receiving, in response to the second server's receipt of the first request, the first content segment comprising first packetized digital video data, \n playing the first content segment on the client device and beginning a timer near when the first content segment begins playing, wherein the timer is configured to count up an elapsed time, \n sending a second request for a second content segment to the third server using the second content resource locator, \n receiving, in response to the second server's receipt of the second request, the second content segment comprising second packetized digital video data that corresponds to advertisement content, \n playing the second content segment on the client device,\n determining, based on the timer and the episode metadata, whether the client device has completed playback of the list of content segments.
