1. A method comprising:
- monitoring a media repository for a particular user stored at a memory of a media server computing device to detect a change in a consumption pattern by the particular user of media objects included in the media repository for the particular user, including tracking at least geographical content or temporal content, or a combination thereof, related to consumption by the particular user of one or more particular media objects of the media objects included in the media repository, and to detect one or more media objects added to and/or removed from the media repository for the particular user, wherein the media objects included in the media repository include one or more video and/or audio objects and one or more licenses to access media objects not stored in the media repository for the particular user;
modifying a user profile for the particular user based at least in part on the detected change in the consumption pattern of the one or more media objects included in the media repository for the particular user and based at least in part on the detected one or more media objects added to and/or removed from the media repository for the particular user;
identifying, via the media server computing device, at least a portion of a promotional media object to be accessible by the particular user via a client computing device based at least in part on the modified user profile for the particular user; and
communicating the at least the portion of the identified promotional media object between the media server computing device and the client computing device at least in part in response to a request obtained from the particular user.

9. An apparatus, comprising:
- a media server computing device comprising a processor and a memory, the processor to;
monitor a media repository for a particular user stored in the memory to detect a change in a consumption pattern by the particular user of media objects included in the media repository for the particular user, wherein, to detect the change in consumption pattern, the processor to track at least geographical content or temporal content, or a combination thereof, related to consumption by the particular user of one or more particular media objects of the media objects included in the media repository for the particular user, and to detect one or more media objects added to and/or removed from the media repository for the particular user, wherein the media objects included in the media repository for the particular user include one or more video and/or audio objects and one or more licenses to access media objects not stored in the media repository for the particular user; modify a user profile for the particular user based at least in part on the change in the consumption pattern of the one or more media objects included in the media repository for the particular user and based at least in part on one or more detected media objects added to and/or removed from the media repository for the particular user; identify at least a portion of a promotional media object to be accessible by the particular user via a client computing device based at least in part on the modified user profile; and initiate communication of the at least the portion of the identified promotional media object between the media server computing device and the client computing device at least in part in response to a request obtained from the particular user. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
