SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MANAGING CONSUMPTION OF MEDIA ITEMS

Abstract:

A database may include media account information for media accounts corresponding to media items, consumer account information for consumer accounts corresponding to consumers, and charge information for the media accounts. Media account information may include media account values for the media accounts. Consumer account information may include consumer account values for the consumer accounts. Charge information may define charge rules for consumption of the media items. An occurrence of a consumption event for a media item may be determined. Responsive to determination of the occurrence of the consumption event, consumption information may be generated. The consumption information may identify (1) consumer account of the consumer that consumed the media item, (2) date and/or time of the consumption, and (3) a type of the consumption. A consumer account value and a media account value may be changed based on the consumption information and/or the charge information.
