Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0227987A2] In order to provide access to broadcast audio programmes, a recording/reproducing apparatus (7) records selected broadcast channels with reference to the broadcast time. A communications processor (5) communicates with terminals (3) associated with a telephone network (4). A user of a terminal (3) sends a request for that user to receive a selected broadcast channel starting from a desired time in the programme. The recording/reproducing apparatus (7) reproduces that broadcast channel starting from the requested time, and forwards the programme to the user's terminal (3) via the communications processor (5). A bookmark server (8) may generate bookmarks allowing interrupted transmissions of programmes to be resumed.
