Method and apparatus for updating song playlists based on received user ratings
First Claim
1. A method for updating song playlists based on received user ratings, comprising:
- receiving information associated with songs in an initial playlist from a host device;
generating a rating interface for the initial playlist, the initial playlist being associated with an image code, the image code being associated with an event is used to link to the rating interface for use at the event at which one or more of the songs are to be played;
sending the image code for the rating interface to the host device for physically posting at the event;
receiving one or more rating inputs from user devices, the user devices providing the one or more rating inputs after accessing the rating interface through the image code that was posted at the event;
analyzing the one or more rating inputs received from the user devices, the analyzing producing an adjusted playlist; and
transmitting the adjusted playlist to the host device, the host device providing for playing of the songs in the adjusted playlist, the method being executed by a processor.

Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, and computer programs are presented for updating song playlists based on received rating inputs from user devices. One method includes receiving information associated with songs in an initial playlist from a host device by a server. The server generates a rating interface for the initial playlist, which is associated with an image code. The image code for the rating interface is sent to the host device so that the user devices can access the rating interface via the image code. After one or more user devices provides rating inputs to the songs in the initial playlist, the received one or more rating inputs are analyzed to produce an adjusted playlist. The method further includes transmitting the adjusted playlist to the host device to be executed.
