Abstract

A digital media player and method for avoiding refreshing a database of metadata associated with digital media content and for providing an improved user experience are disclosed. In one embodiment, a digital media player storing a database of metadata associated with digital media content determines whether a removable memory device was connected with the digital media player while the digital media player was powered down. The digital media player refreshes the database only if it is determined that the removable memory device was connected with the digital media player while the digital media player was powered down. Other embodiments are provided.
