A method and system are provided for delivering digital content. A first cataloged list of content is delivered from a user operated device to a media storage device, and attributes of the first cataloged list are determined. A second cataloged list of content is delivered from a content provider to the media storage device. The first cataloged list is modified based upon the second cataloged list and the attributes, and the modified first cataloged list is delivered to the user operated device. Content from the modified first cataloged list is delivered to the user operated device for storage and subsequent playback.

Method and system for updating a list of content stored on a user-operated device

A method and system are provided for delivering digital content. A first catalogued list of content is delivered from a user operated device to a media storage device, and attributes of the first catalogued list are determined. A second catalogued list of content is delivered from a content provider to the media storage device. The first catalogued list is modified based upon the second catalogued list and the attributes, and the modified first catalogued list is delivered to the user operated device. Content from the modified first catalogued list is delivered to the user operated device for storage and subsequent playback.

Methods, systems, and computer readable media for automatic generation of graphic artwork to be presented by a device during playing or browsing of a media file by the device are provided. One method includes providing, via a computer or mobile device, a user interface through which a user can select a media file for which graphic artwork is to be generated and initiate automatic graphic artwork generation for the media file. The method further includes providing access to a media file graphic artwork generator via the computer or mobile device, where the media file graphic artwork generator, in response to user selection of the media file and the initiation of the media file artwork generation, automatically selects a plurality of images from at least one group of images, varies parameters of at least some of the images, and combines the images to form a graphic artwork file. At least one of the image selecting, the image parameter varying, and the image combining is performed using an algorithm structured to produce varying output in successive iterations of the algorithm invoked with the same input. The media file graphic artwork generator associates the graphic artwork file with the media file for display when the media file is browsed, displayed or played.

Systems, methods, and computer readable media for managing digital media in a memory storage device associated with a mobile smart device are disclosed. According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein includes a method for configuring a rewriteable non-volatile memory for presentation of media by a selected media presentation device model. The method includes providing a rewriteable non-volatile memory configuration interface through which a user can select at least one media file and one of a plurality of media presentation device models. and providing a rewriteable non-volatile memory configuration manager, which, in response to selection of the at least one media file and the one media presentation device model via the configuration interface, accesses a database including entries corresponding to the plurality of media presentation device models and configures a rewriteable non-volatile memory according to information retrieved from the database to allow presentation of the at least one media file when the rewriteable non-volatile memory is present in the selected media presentation device model.

A system is presented providing content to a plurality of handheld devices (including musical selections). The devices can access a server over the Internet via a WIFI or other similar wireless interconnection and can download songs requested by a user from the server or from other users using, e.g., a P2P protocol. All downloads are governed by applicable DRM rules. Content and playlists may also be pushed by a server from other sources and means including, e.g., podcasting, based on predetermined rules, favorite preferences of users, and other criteria.

A hydraulically operated downhole pump that is connected to or disposed in a string of tubing, and when operated by pressurized oil from the ground surface, is capable of discharging production fluid, gas, and pressurized oil from the well either separately or in desired combinations thereof. The pump includes an elongate housing preferably of such transverse cross section as to be longitudinally movable through a tubing string, with the pump including universal joint connected upper and lower helical screws that rotate in slidable sealing contact with upper and lower double threaded resilient stator blocks secured to the interior of the housing. As pressurized oil is discharged into the upper end of the housing the upper helical screw and associated stator act as a motor to drive the lower helical screw relative to the lower stator block. As the lower helical screw rotates relative to the lower stator block, the lower helical screw acts as a pump to discharge production fluid from the well upwardly therein either separately or in combination with the pressurized oil depending on the components associated with the pump.
