Abstract
Participants share live (SL) content in real-time by sharing socially-targeted user-selected/generated content while simultaneously consuming content from any integrated content provider. In the context of an exemplary music-based scenario, an inviting user, while listening to music from any integrated music provider, may initiate a SLsession such that concurrent data streams are maintained and media playback information is managed separately from media content playback channels. Information about playback events is continuously transmitted via facilitated sockets. Participant consumers may consume shared content (LL) by tapping a proprietary resolution method to identify and properly source the media content the broadcaster is sharing. Independent social broadcast streams may also be overlaid atop the direct playback of media content from a preferred provider as governed by the proprietary resolution method. An event-handling micro-service maintains and combines the broadcaster's content playback actions and social content, which are synchronized on multiple participant devices.
