determining a second streaming media item via the processor, wherein the second streaming media item is positively rated by a group of users whose aggregate user interest profile for the first streaming media item is similar to the user interest profile;
determining, via the processor, a portion of the second streaming media item for which the group of users have expressed disagreement in interest by;
determining a difference between two interest profiles for the portion of the second streaming media item; and
determining that the difference is beyond a threshold;
recommending the second streaming media item to the user via the processor; and
