         7 . System according to  claim 6 , wherein the music file and/or multimedia file of the data sets and the multimedia file of the further data sets have at least one common characteristic, in particular are assignable to a specific artist or a specific group of artists. 
     
     
         8 . System according to  claim 1 , wherein the unencrypted multimedia files are storable in the data memory of the end-user-device by a further storage means. 
     
     
         9 . System according to  claim 8 , wherein the unencrypted multimedia files are assignable to a variety of action means, in particular an information means, a purchase means, a documentation means and/or a communication means. 
     
     
         10 . System according to  claim 9 , wherein the individual action means are designed to exchange data with further server devices different from the server device, whereby data sets assignable to the individual action means, which particularly comprise multimedia files, such as interviews, news, magazine collaborations, biographies and lyrics, are transmittable or updateable from the further server devices. 
     
     
         11 . System according to  claim 9 , wherein an action means designed as purchase means provides the appropriate network address, encryption and/or permission for the purchase processing taking place with one of the further server devices for artist-related analog or digital goods and services. 
     
     
         12 . System according to  claim 9 , wherein an action means designed as a communication means causes a data exchange with one of the further server devices between an end-user-device operating operator and a communication platform for posting articles or causes for data exchange with at least one further end-user-device, particularly mobile end-user-device, also equipped with an inventive system according to  claim 9 .
