  • Method and device for storing content on a removable medium
    Patent number: 7543111
    Abstract: The method consists of providing (1) a user interface for selecting a content item stored on a storage means, retrieving (3) a further content item related to the content item from a system on a network using an identification of the content item, and storing (5) the further content item on the removable medium. The electronic device contains a writer (23), a control unit (25), and a network interface (27). The control unit (25) is able to use an input device and an output device to enable a user to select a content item stored on a storage means (33), to use the network interface (27) for retrieving a further content item related to the content item from a system on a network using an identification of the content item, and to use the writer (23) for storing the further content item on the removable medium. The computer program product enables, upon its execution, a programmable apparatus to function as the electronic device.

  • Magnetic scanning system
    Patent number: 6853513
    Abstract: A scanning device for scanning data-carrying disks. The disks include a magnetisable layer to and from which data is written and read using a magnetic transducer, such as a Giant Magneto-Resistive (GMR) transducer. Positioning of the transducer over a data track is achieved by optical tracking using a land/groove structure, and positioning of the transducer with respect to the optical tracking system by means of a reference beam transmitted through the disk.
