CONTENT PLAYBACK CONTROL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240339133 titled 'CONTENT PLAYBACK CONTROL

The abstract describes a system and method for retrieving and outputting content in a way that eliminates the need for storing multiple copies or versions of the same content. The content may have associated computer instructions that allow users to access alternate portions of the content during consumption, enabling the content provider to store a single copy of the complete content while providing consumers with access to different audio or video segments. A new playback architecture can execute these instructions, which may impact consumption based on user preferences or interests.
