Abstract
Systems and methods are described which provide consumers with information regarding the entertainment content available on the entertainment devices and to improve the ease with which the consumers can select songs and other entertainment content for performance on the entertainment device. A consumer at home may access a consumer portal over the Internet using a browser application. Through this portal, the consumer may select one or more entertainment content items to be saved in one or more playlists associated with a user identity specific to that consumer. The consumer may then travel to a venue where a network-enabled jukebox entertainment device is located. Using the user interface of the entertainment device, the consumer may log into their user account and retrieve the playlists previously created by the consumer at home. The consumer may then select one or more entertainment content items from that playlist for performance on the entertainment device.
