Title:
APPARATUS, SYSTEM, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR SERVICE SELECTION AND SORTING
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005045603
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An apparatus, system, method and computer program product for providing broadcast services. A terminal controller is configured to use data forming the whole of or part of an electronic service guide, and store information concerning the accessibility of services. That information is then used to generate a list of selectable services available to the user. A user interface presents at least part of the list in a selectable manner. Service accessibility display options are included either as a setting in the terminal or as a user input. Subscribed services are presented to the user differently than non-subscribed services. If a non-subscribed service is selected, payment data is retrieved from the terminal and a suitable subscription is purchased without significant user involvement. The purchase of a subscription results in the terminal receiving subscription data, which is then stored for future use.
