Summary:To view media, a user may select a media stream by operating a portable device that controls a media presentation device. The portable device may be configured to multicast this stream selection to both the media presentation device and a selection analysis machine. The remote control may have or include both an infrared emitter and a cellular telephone, and the stream selection may be sent both to the media presentation device and to the selection analysis machine. The selection analysis machine may receive and store stream selections over a period of time, and these aggregated stream selections may form all or part of a profile of a user or a group of users who use the media presentation device. This profile may indicate viewing habits and choices of one or more users of the media presentation device, and the selection analysis machine may analyze this profile.
