Abstract
A system, method and computer program product that allows real-time, secure access to digital multimedia files over a communications network (e.g., the Internet) is provided. The system allows a user to receive large amounts of multimedia data without requiring a high bandwidth data path to an Internet server. The method and computer program product allow the user to employ a selection process from a hypertext data page to obtain and view/play the contents of specific sets of multimedia data which are stored in a storage device local to the user. The files on the local device are unusable without the instructions from the hypertext page. The present invention involves no change to standard WWW protocols, allows the user to interact in a regular-fashion with all other WWW servers and controls the multimedia server over a standard Internet connection.
