`signal of the audio work, (B) information samples of the audio work, (C)
`average intensities of sampled windows of the audio work, and (D)
`information from frequencies of the audio work, and
`
`The amendments further seeks to clarify the following clause in the same claim
`
`means that the audio work is either a broadcast, a digital file or an MP3 file or a
`
`combination of one or more of those items:
`
`wherein the audio work is one of (A) a broadcast, (B) a digital file, or (C)
`an MP3 file.
`
`The amendments also seek to clarify when the phrase “at least one of’ A “or” B is
`
`used, it includes (i) at least one of A, (ii) at least one of B, or (iii) at least one of A and at
`
`least one of B.
`
`It may also include other items.
