    摘要: A method for providing access to media content from a media content provider is performed at an electronic device. The method includes receiving, from a client device, a request for access to a media item. The method further includes, in response to the request for access to the media item: initiating an heuristic analysis to determine whether the client device is authorized to access the media item, including an examination of a media consumption log associated with the client device; and asynchronously providing access to the media item while performing the heuristic analysis. The method further includes, based on the examination of the media consumption log, determining that the client device has reached an access limit of requests to access media content. The method further includes, in accordance with the determination, after the client device has been provided to access the media item, terminating access to the media item.

    摘要: A method is performed at a first electronic device associated with a user. The method includes displaying a webpage including a control element associated with media content provided by a media server. The webpage originates from a webpage server distinct from the media server. The method includes receiving a user input selecting the control element, and, in response to the user input: sending a media control request to the media server, the media control request configured to cause the media server to perform a media control operation to control presentation of the media content at a second electronic device associated with the user, wherein the second electronic device is distinct from the first electronic device; and sending, to the second electronic device, a local media control request via a local network. The local media control request is configured to cause performance of the same media control operation.

    摘要: A method for providing access to media content from a media content provider is performed at an electronic device. The method comprises receiving, from a client device, a request for access to a media item. The method further comprises, in response to the request for access to the media item, initiating an analysis to determine whether the client device is authorized to access the requested media item based on detection of multiple different user identifiers using a same local-application universally unique identifier (UUID). A local-application UUID is assigned to each instance of an application provided by the media content provider. The method further comprises, in accordance with a determination that the client device is not authorized to access the requested media item based on detection of the multiple different user identifiers using the same local-application UUID, preventing access to the requested media item by the client device.

    摘要: A method for controlling media presentation is disclosed. In some implementations, the method is performed at a first electronic device having one or more processors and memory storing one or more programs for execution by the one or more processors. The first electronic device displays a webpage including a control element, such as a “play” button. The webpage originates from a webpage server. The first electronic device receives a user input, such as a mouse click, selecting the control element. In response to the user input, the first electronic device sends a media control request to a media server. The media control request is configured to cause the media server to control presentation of first media content at a second electronic device associated with the user, wherein the second electronic device is different from the first electronic device, and wherein the media server is different from the webpage server.

    摘要: A method for controlling media presentation is performed at a first electronic device having one or more processors and memory storing one or more programs for execution by the one or more processors. A user input requesting a media-control operation to be implemented at a second electronic device distinct from the first electronic device is received. In response to receiving the user input, a first request is sent to a server system to cause the media-control operation to be implemented at the second electronic device, wherein the server system is distinct from the first electronic device. A second request is sent to the second electronic device, wherein the second request is a request to implement the media-control operation at the second electronic device.
