PLAYBACK OF STREAMED MEDIA CONTENT

摘要

The present disclosure generally relates to the providing of media content, e.g. audio content in the form of music. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to systems, methods, computer server systems and electronic devices for playback of streamed media content. A visual array of one or several media options that correspond to one or more proposed media playlists can be provided at the user interface of the electronic devices. This makes it possible to facilitate the browsing, and thus the selection, of media content. The one or more proposed media playlists are based on previously played media and, accordingly, the proposed media playlists become personalized to fit the taste of the user of the electronic device.
