Abstract:
In a system and method for managing user profiles and for managing, recording, and experiencing media content, a server may store a profile, content, and an association of the content with a profile, each of multiple devices may log into the profile by accessing the profile stored at the server, and, for the profile into which the device is logged, transmit to the server a content request, for example, periodically, and the server may, responsive to the content request, determine which content stored at the server is associated with the profile and transmit to the device a copy of the content that has been determined to be associated with the profile. The content may be stored at the server in association with the profile before the device is associated with the profile.
