Abstract:
A processing system, which including a processor and associated memory, provides broadcast content to a broadcaster via a communications network. The broadcast content includes multiple broadcast media items. Subsequent to the broadcast content being broadcast, the processing system receives, via the communications network, an information transfer initiated by an end-user device. The information transfer includes tag information indicating a selected broadcast media item previously marked by a user of the end-user device during a period of time the end-user device was disconnected from the processing system. In response to the information transfer, the processing system identifies content related to the selected broadcast media item based on the tag information, and uploads the identified content to the end-user device via the communications network.
