Abstract

This disclosure relates to systems and methods for determining when a user likes a piece of content based, at least in part, on analyzing user responses to the content. In one embodiment, the user's response may be monitored by audio and motion detection devices to determine when the user's vocals or movements are emulating the content. When the user's emulation exceeds a threshold amount the content may be designated as 'liked.' In certain instances, a similar piece of content may be selected to play when the current content is finished.
