In response to a user reserving a vehicle via a first application on a user's mobile device, a first server authorizes a transportation service provider to access media items associated with the user's account for a media content provider. The authorizing includes receiving a first identifier generated by a second application on the mobile device, generating a second identifier if the first identifier is valid, and sending the second identifier to a second server associated with the transportation service provider. A request, initiated via the second application, is received to present a first media item at a media presentation system of the reserved vehicle. In response, a portion of the first media item is sent for presentation at the media presentation system if a device in communication with the media presentation system has received the second identifier.

Systems and methods for temporary access to media content

Methods, systems, and/or devices for providing temporary access to media content are described herein. In one aspect, a server provides authorization to a transportation service provider for accessing one or more media items associated with an account of a user for a media content provider. The server provides the authorization in response to the user reserving a vehicle through the transportation service provider. Additionally, the server receives a first request (e.g., a request initiated by a mobile device of the user) to present a first media item of the one or more media items at a media presentation system of a reserved vehicle provided by the transportation service provider. In accordance with the authorization, the server sends a portion of the first media item for presentation at the media presentation system.
