1. A method for presenting streaming media, said method comprising:
- receiving at least one data stream associated with an event;
generating a first signal by compressing said data stream and a second signal based on a difference between said data stream and said first signal;
compressing said second signal according to a measure of compression quality;
transmitting said first signal and said second signal.

Abstract
At least one data stream associated with an event is received. Compressing the data stream generates a first signal. A second signal is generated based on a difference between the data stream and the first signal. The second signal is compressed according to a measure of compression quality. The first signal and the second signal are transmitted.

21. A method for selectively rendering streaming media, said method comprising:
-
receiving a first signal associated with an event and a second signal associated with said event, wherein said first signal is generated by compressing a data stream and said second signal is generated based on a difference between said first signal and said data stream;
generating a high quality signal by adding said first signal and said second signal;
receiving a user request;
provided said user request is for rendering a low quality signal, rendering said first signal; and
provided said user request is for rendering a high quality signal, rendering said high quality signal. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24)

25. An electronic device comprising:
-
a receiver configured to receive a first signal associated with an event and a second signal associated with said event, wherein said first signal is generated by compressing a data stream and said second signal is generated based on a difference between said first signal and said data stream;
a signal adder configured to add said first signal and said second signal to generate a high quality signal;
a signal selector configured to render a signal based on a user request, wherein said first signal is rendered in response to said user request for a low quality signal and wherein said high quality signal is rendered in response to said user request for said high quality signal; and
an audio/video device for rendering said signal in response to said user request. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28)
