User-Customized Subject-Categorized Website Entertainment Database

A dynamic website database system constructs, maintains and rank orders a searchable database of media works. Each media work is assigned attributes that relate to subject matter categories, in addition to general entertainment ratings. The system rank orders each media work separately in each applicable category. Users access the website over the Internet and categorize the media works in the database, add new titles to the database, and rank them by category. Users search for media works of interest by category and by rank within the category and rent or purchase media works and related items through the website. Bloggers, discussion forums, and informational links draw individuals passionate about a given subject to the site and cause them to form virtual associations, which are ready made sources for evaluating, financing and developing new media works and marketing and selling existing media works.
