Summary:a system and corresponding method deliver live media content to two or more client computers over a computer network. An encoded media signal representing a live event is received, where the live event includes at least a language portion. The encoded media signal is encoded for transmission over the computer network. The language portion is converted into a character signal. The character signal and encoded media signal are then synchronized. The synchronized character signal and encoded media signal are then provided to client computers over the computer network in near real time. Recorded media having an aural component may likewise be employed. Users may search and retrieve archived content and associated transcribed text or character string signals.
