A queue or media queue of music is generated by multiple listeners for playing by one or more devices. Listeners may select music using user interfaces rendered by their respective devices, and rank or vote to determine an order in which the music is played in accordance with the queue or media queue. Where a song or another media entity is accessible at a premium or only with a subscription, and one of the multiple listeners is not authorized to access the song, an unauthorized listener may be invited to purchase a subscription, or a substitute song may be selected for the unauthorized listener. Once a queue or media queue has been generated, music may be played in accordance with the queue or media queue by a single device in the presence of the multiple listeners, or by multiple devices each having any number of listeners within a vicinity.
