Abstract
Mobile device playback and control of media content stored on a personal media host device is provided. The mobile device may communicate a request for media content to a network server, which may determine whether the mobile device is authorized to access the requested media content. If it is determined that the mobile device is authorized, the network server may access the media content from the host device. The network server may then initiate a media session with the mobile device, wherein the media content is streamed to the mobile device.
