Claims 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 and 9 are cancelled.
Claims 3, 6, 7 and 10 were not reexamined.
1. A method for recording a media signal comprising:
generating one or more data items wherein said data items arc associated with said media signal;
determining a maximum compression rate from said data items wherein recording said media signal compressed at said maximum compression rate does not result in an unacceptable loss of quality of said media signal;
compressing said media signal at said maximum rate into a compressed media signal; and
storing said compressed media signal, wherein said step of determining is performed at a client in a client/server architecture.
