Claim 0:
1. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer readable instructions which, when executed, cause a processor of a mobile device to at least:
determine a location of a mobile device;
compare the location of the mobile device with a set of predefined locations at which audio monitoring is to be performed;
send a status request including a first location corresponding to a location of the mobile device to a media presentation status server in response to the location of the mobile device corresponding to one of the predefined locations, and to conserve a battery life of the mobile device, the status request is not sent when the location of the mobile device does not correspond to any of the set of predefined locations;
receive, from the media presentation status server in response to the request including the first location, a status indicating whether a likelihood of media being presented at the first location satisfies a threshold, the status obtained at the media presentation status server from a presentation monitor, separate from the mobile device, associated with the first location;
enable collection of audio with the mobile device when the status indicates that the likelihood of media being presented satisfies the threshold and the location of the mobile device corresponds to the first location; and
disable collection of audio when the status indicates that the likelihood of media being presented does not satisfy the threshold and the location of the mobile device corresponds to the first location to conserve battery life of the mobile device.
