A remotely programmable broadcast content recording system (120) is programm ed through a web page (106) to record broadcast content such as television programs. Accordingly, a user (110) can select content of interest and progr am the system from almost any location using a web browser (112). A host system (102) hosts a web site (104) through which the user can browse program listings and select content. In response to the selection of a program by th e user, the host system creates programming data and transmits the programming data to the user's recording system. The recording system can be configured to receive transmissions from the host system. A client programming module configured to receive the transmissions can be used to program a conventiona l recording device. The recording system can be supplemented with a web server and an Internet connection to provide a point of presence on the World Wide Web through which the system can be directly programmed.
