Abstract:
While playing a first media item, a device establishes a first wireless communication channel with a second electronic device while the second electronic device is playing a second media item. The device receives, from the second electronic device, second contextual data of the second electronic device via the first wireless communication channel. The second context data corresponds to the second media item. The device receives a playback command for the second media item played at the second electronic device. In response, the device automatically plays the second media item without additional user input at the device. The device establishes a second wireless communication channel with a third electronic device; receives, from the third electronic device, third contextual data corresponding to a third media item; and, in response, queues the third media item to be played after playing the second media item at the first electronic device.
