`ABSTRACT
`
`The invention enables digital music content to be downloaded
`to and used on a portable wireless computing device. An
`application running on the wireless device has been automati­
`cally adapted to parameters associated with the wireless
`device without end-user input (e.g. the application has been
`configured in dependence on the device OS and firmware,
`related bugs, screen size, pixel number, security models, con­
`nection handling, memory etc. This application enables an
`end-user to browse and search music content on a remote
`server using a wireless network; to download music content
`from that remote server using the wireless network and to
`playback and manage that downloaded music content. The
`application also includes a digital rights management system
`that enables unlimited legal downloads of different music
`tracks to the device and also enables any of those tracks stored
`on the device to be played so long as a subscription service has
`not terminated.
