Abstract
There is disclosed herein a system and method for enabling proximity-based, peer-to-peer sharing of media in which a first device having a wireless communication surrounding the device detects other wireless devices within the region. Communication connections are formed between the wireless devices and a list of the connections is maintained. Without input from a user, media is shared between the individual devices on the connections list and between the individual devices on the connections list and a remote server. Devices not included in the list of connections are blocked from accessing the media. Access to the media is available for a pre-determined period of time, after which time access to the media is blocked for all devices.
