Method and system for error correction of a storage media

A server for providing replacement data for a data file comprising:

• an archival memory containing at least one data file;
• and
• a controller coupled to the archival memory and for receiving, over a communications network from a reproduction apparatus, a request for replacement data corresponding to a data packet of the data file contained in the archival memory, wherein the request is based on at least one of playback and execution of the data file from a storage media by the reproduction apparatus and includes a memory location corresponding to the data packet, wherein the controller, in response to the request, transmits over the communications network replacement data corresponding to the memory location in the data file, and wherein the controller generates a correction record for the storage media, based on the request, in a replacement data request log, wherein the correction record includes information indicating:
• (i) an identity of a particular storage media, for which replacement data corresponding to unreadable data of a particular data file stored thereon is transmitted responsive to a request to replace unreadable data of the particular data file stored on the particular storage media received at the controller including an identifier of the particular data file and an identifier of the particular storage media;
• (ii) a number of times a request to replace unreadable data of the particular data file on the particular storage media is received at the server;
• and (iii) one or more certain types of storage media, for which replacement data corresponding to unreadable data of the particular data file is transmitted responsive to a request to replace unreadable data of the particular data file, such that a problem with writing a properly received data file to a specific type of storage media is identifiable.
