Abstract

Apparatus for locating, downloading, storing, and displaying certain user-selected, network-based program data includes a processor having a memory for storing the user profile, a network interface that couples the processor to a communications network, and a data storage device electrically connected to the processor. The processor is adapted to search the communications network to locate one or more remote network sites that include program data corresponding to the specified program data types, to download the program data from the located remote network sites to the data storage device, and to format the downloaded program data into a viewable format.
