Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for generating a suggested list of media items based upon a seed
First Claim
1. A method for suggesting a list of media items to a user, said method comprising:
- presenting a user with a selection element for gathering a seed for generating a list of media items related to the seed;
receiving a seed selection from the user;
identifying one or more characteristics of said seed; and
generating a suggested list of media items with characteristics corresponding to the one or more characteristics of said seed, wherein said generating comprises determining a score for said seed, determining a score for each media item in a candidate list of media items, and selecting at least one media item from said candidate list based upon the relationship between the score of the seed and the score of the at least one media item.

Abstract
A system and method for suggesting a list of media items to a user. The method comprises presenting a user with a selection element for gathering a seed for generating a list of media items related to the seed. The method further receives a seed selection from the user and identifies one or more characteristics of the seed. The method further generates a suggested list of media items with characteristics corresponding to the one or more characteristics of the seed. The method additionally presents the user with the suggested list of media items and a choice of selecting media items or groups of media items in the suggested list. A system for executing the method comprises a user interface, a processor, and a data source for generating the suggested list by evaluating characteristics of the media items to similar find media items.

14. A system for facilitating a user in generating a suggested list of one or more media items, said system comprising:
-
a data source containing a library of media items;
a user interface adapted for receiving a seed selection from a user; and
a processor adapted for identifying one or more characteristics of the seed and for identifying one or more characteristics of each of said media items of said library, said processor further adapted for determining a score for said seed based upon said one or more characteristics and for determining a score for each of said media items of said library based upon said one or more characteristics, said processor further adapted for generating a suggested list of media items from the library with characteristics corresponding to the one or more characteristics of said seed based upon said score of said seed and said score of each of said media items of said library. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16)

17. A computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions for suggesting a list of one or more media items to a user, said computer-executable instructions for performing steps comprising:
-
presenting instructions for presenting a user with a selection element for gathering a seed for generating a list of media items related to the seed;
receiving instructions for receiving a seed selection from the user;
identifying instructions for identifying one or more characteristics of said seed; and
generating instructions for generating a suggested list of media items with characteristics corresponding to the one or more characteristics of said seed, wherein said generating instructions comprise determining instructions for determining a score for said seed, determining instructions for determining a score for each media item in a candidate list of media items, and selecting instructions for selecting at least one media item from said candidate list based upon the relationship between the score of the seed and the score of the at least one media item. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
