Methods and systems for efficient content delivery

Last updated:

Abstract:

Methods and systems for improved device authentication and presentation of media content to passengers aboard a transportation apparatus are disclosed. In some aspects, authentication of a device may be simplified based on previous associations made between the device, a user, and travel on a transportation apparatus within a particular time period. In some aspects, passenger selected media content may be prepositioned on stable storage within a transportation apparatus such that the media content may be provided to one or more passengers of the transportation apparatus while the transportation apparatus is in motion, and thus avoid transfer of the media content over an off-board wireless communication link.
