Abstract: Abstract A method to provide information about media products available through a media distribution platform enables users of the media distribution platform to communicate information about media products via social network messages. Upon selection of an option by a user to communicate information about a media product via a social network message, the media distribution platform generates a pre-filled social network message that includes an identifier of the media product. In addition to allowing information about media products to be communicated via the social network, the media product identifier also enables the media distribution platform to retrieve information about a media product's popularity as indicated by the number of social network messages that include the identifier. This information can be utilized to enhance and personalize user media product recommendations through the media distribution platform. -25 SOCIA-330 NETWORK'

Abstract: INTELLIGENT DELIVERY AND ACQUISTION OF DIGITAL ASSETS Improved techniques and systems for delivery and acquisition of digital assets are disclosed. The techniques and systems are especially suitable and useful for delivering digital assets (e.g., media assets) that are available for acquisition and electronic delivery from online stores to electronic devices. In accordance with one aspect, when a digital asset is acquired form an online store via an electronic device associated with a user, the digital asset can be arranged for delivery to a number of other of electronic devices also associated with the user. It will be appreciated that the digital asset can be delivered and acquired without requiring explicit user input or instruction in accordance with another aspect. Other aspects of the techniques and systems include customization of configuration and user interfaces that are provided to facilitate acquisition of digital assets in a more efficient manner. 101-P752AU c *i c 0 L 0 1-3 0

Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can transfer a playback queue between the computing device and a playback device. For example, the computing device can detect when the computing device is within a threshold distance of a playback device. The computing device can establish a connection to the playback device and receive state information describing the media playback state of the playback device. The computing device can determine the media playback state of the computing device. The computing device can present graphical user interfaces for initiating a transfer of a playback queue between the computing device and the playback device based on the playback state of the devices. The computing device can initiate a transfer of the playback queue in response to user input to one of the graphical user interfaces or automatically based on the context of the computing device.

Abstract: In some implementations, a user device can predictively route media content to a remote playback device based on playback context information obtained by the user device. The playback context can include local playback context information related to the state and/or context of the user device. The playback context can include remote playback context information related to the state and/or context of available remote playback devices. Based on the playback context information obtained by the user device, the user device can generate a predictive score for each available playback device that indicates or predicts the likelihood that the user will want to send media content to the corresponding playback device. The user device can generate and present a graphical user interface that can identify the playback devices having predictive scores over a threshold score. In some instances, the user device can automatically route selected media content to a predicted playback device. o o C))-~ C" I -, z0 L C") U) coo 04) CCOI a Da 0 C') C/) 0ac

Abstract: Verfahren und Systeme unterstützen eine zwischen mehreren Vorrichtungen koordinierte Steuerung der Wiedergabe eines Medientitels oder einer Wiedergabeliste. Die mehreren Vorrichtungen können ein Ad-ho□c-Netzwerk zum Teilen der Steuerung von Medien bilden. Eine Steuervorrichtung kann die Steuerung der Wiedergabeliste koordinieren und die Wiedergabe der Medien auf einer Wiedergabevorrichtung ermöglichen. Dann, wenn die Steuervorrichtung die Gruppe verlässt, wird eine zweite Vorrichtung in der Gruppe nahtlos zur Steuervorrichtung und steuert die Wiedergabe und die Koordination der Wiedergabeliste. Die Wiedergabevorrichtung kann auch die Steuervorrichtung sein. Die Wiedergabeberatung kann ein netzwerkfähiger Lautsprecher sein. Wenn die Wiedergabevorrichtung von der Steuervorrichtung getrennt ist, kann die Wiedergabevorrichtung ausreichende Informationen unterhalten, um ohne eine Steuervorrichtung betrieben zu werden, bis eine neue Steuervorrichtung ausgewählt ist.

Abstract: A method performed in a portable computing device for intelligently performing audio playback, upon connecting with an audio output system. The portable computing device detects that a connection is made with an audio output system. The portable computing device determines a first audio playback application that last played audio and when the first audio playback application last played audio. If the first audio playback application played audio within a specified amount of time in the past, then the portable computing device signals that audio playback be performed from the first audio playback application (through the connection made with the audio output system.) If the first audio playback application did not play audio within the specified amount of time in the past, then the portable computing device determines a second audio playback application that last played audio when the portable computing device was previously connected to the audio output system and signals audio playback from the second audio playback application (through the connection made with the audio output system.) Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
