Abstract
The present invention discloses a network communication system that includes a network processing center for receiving and converting an electronic or electro-magnetically transmissible data/content into a physically deliverable object and/or network transmissible content data files for carrying out a hybrid delivery of the data/content by a physical delivery process and/or a network electro-magnetic delivery process to a recipient or an ECRMA. The delivery status of the electronic content and the post-delivery activities are tracked by a variety of mechanisms and the information obtained from the tracking is send back to the content-sender.

A network communication system comprising:
- network processing stations for receiving and converting electronic or electro-magnetic data or content transmitted through telecommunication network to the network processing stations as an electro-magnetically transmissible contents (e-TC) into a hybrid content deliverable object comprises network transmissible content data files or physically deliverable object for carrying out a hybrid delivery as an initial delivery of the network transmissible content data files or physically deliverable object by a physical delivery process or through a network to a recipient and to an initial delivery electronic content receiving/managing apparatus (ECRMA) wherein the initial delivery ECRMA further transmits the e-TC to multiple succeeding e-TC managing complexes (EM Cs) each functioning as receiver and sender for distributing and delivering the e-TC as the network transmissible content data files to next subsequent EMC in multiple subsequent deliveries;
- wherein the hybrid content deliverable object further comprises an advertisement compact disk or DVD having a built in software function components as a feedback communication functional component for communicating to the ECRMA a post-delivery status and post-delivery activities of the multiple subsequent deliveries of multiple succeeding EMCs in addition to a report of a status of the initial delivery of the hybrid content deliverable object;
- and
- wherein the hybrid content deliverable object further having a built in tracking functional component for tracking and communicating a tracking system (TS) information to the ECRMA in an offline condition for tracking the post-delivery status and post-delivery activities of the multiple subsequent deliveries in addition to a report of a status of the initial delivery of the advertisement.
