1. A method comprising:

  • designating a media-to-media (MTM) connection between first digital media content and second digital media content, wherein the MTM connection causes the first digital media content to be aware of the second digital media content; and

    storing MTM connection information in a first digital media content file comprising the first digital media content, wherein the MTM connection information specifically identifies a second digital media content file comprising the second digital media content, wherein the MTM connection information comprises one or more MTM connection control aspect for the MTM connection between the first digital media content and the second digital media content, wherein the one or more MTM connection control aspect includes connection type control, wherein the connection type control provides selection between bidirectional and unidirectional connection for the MTM connection, wherein, when the connection between the first digital media content and the second digital media content is a bidirectional connection, selection of either the first digital media content or the second digital media content causes presentation of both the first digital media content and the second digital media content, and wherein, when the connection between the first digital media content and the second digital media content is a unidirectional connection, selection of the first digital media content causes presentation of the first digital media content and the second digital media content, but selection of the second digital media content does not causes presentation of the first digital media content.
