摘要

Apparatus and method for allowing a user to acquire and record information from the Internet may comprise a user interface that allows the user to identify at least one information service on the Internet that provides desired information and to select a desired completion time. A scheduler operatively associated with the user interface calculates a launch time to allow the desired information to be downloaded and recorded in its entirety before the desired completion time. A recording dispatcher operatively associated with the scheduler and the user interface begins downloading at the launch time the desired information from the information service. A recorder operatively associated with the recording dispatcher records the desired information to a recording medium.
