Abstract
Systems and methods in accordance with embodiments of the invention enable streamlined content download that minimizes user input during the download process. One embodiment includes a system for streamlined downloading of content to a user computing device, including: an application server system configured to locate an intermediary application in response to a request received from a user computing device; where the intermediary application includes a content ID and configures a user computing device to initialize a download manager on a user computing device, and to pass the content ID to the download manager; and where the download manager configures the user computing device to utilize the content ID to retrieve content access information, and download content from a content server system utilizing the content access information.
