One application of this system is the ability of users to purchase goods and services during receipt of program content. In another application, the reverse path system receives feedback from one or more users and uses the feedback to influence, modify or change the forward path content (network to end user device direction) delivered to multiple users who share the forward path via the wireless multicast communication network. This system is directed at multi-user gaming applications.
