Systems and methods for voice-assisted media content selection
摘要
說明書
For example, consider a user that pays a monthly subscription to a VAS provider for a first music service (such as a VAS-sponsored music service, e.g., AMAZON's AMAZON MUSIC UNLIMITED) and another monthly subscription for a second music service (e.g., SPOTIFY, I HEART RADIO, PANDORA, TUNEIN, etc.). If the user asks the VAS to play music by [Artist A], the VAS will not play back songs by [Artist A] for the user if neither of the first and second music services include songs by [Artist A] in their respective media libraries. Also, if a user has access to [Artist A]'s songs through a third music service that is not supported by the VAS, such as APPLE's iTUNES, the VAS will not provide access to this service, despite the user paying a monthly fee to have access to these songs. To access the media library of the third music service, the user will need to access the library through an alternate service, such as the iTUNES service). A related inconvenience is that the user will not be able to voice-request play back of any media content unique to iTUNES, such as user- and iTUNES-created playlists, iTUNES radio stations (such as Beats 1), etc.
