ABSTRACT:
A method and system for individually labelling a recording medium at the time that digital information is recorded thereon is provided. The method provides for transferring at least a portion of the digital information in the form of a digital data stream to the medium from a storage location. Title information is extracted from the data stream and used to create a visual label that is placed on the recording medium. The title information on the recording medium uniquely identifies the digital information that is recorded on the medium. In an exemplary embodiment, the system of the invention will use a controller to receive a portion of the digital data stream stored in the storage location. A recorder is in communication with the controller for receiving the data stream from the controller and for recording the data stream on the recording medium. A printer is also in communication with the controller for receiving the title information from the controller and for producing the visual label having the title information on the recording medium. Preferably, the recording medium will be a compact disk, and the printer will be a laser or ink jet type printer that is integrated into the recording device to allow the label to be printed on the compact disk as the compact is either delivered to or ejected from the recording device.
