Abstract
A media store server offers access to multimedia contents available from servers of one or more vendors. The media store server provides customers' digital information devices with catalog of content offered through the media store server. To provide a unified catalog for the store, multimedia contents are grouped according to descriptive texts for the multimedia contents. A descriptive text for a multimedia content item or file is obtained from a vendor's catalog. The descriptive text for the multimedia content is standardized to generate a token for that particular multimedia content item. The multimedia content is classified in an existing catalog group corresponding to an already existent token, if the newly generated token matches an existent token in the catalog of the media store server. A new group for multimedia content is generated and the particular multimedia content is assigned to the newly generated group, if the newly generated token does not yet exist in the catalog of the multimedia store server.
