Abstract
A speech-based system may be configured to receive and act upon spoken requests from a user. In some cases, a spoken request may ask the system to play content such as music without specifying from which of multiple available content sources the music is to be obtained. In response to such a request, the system analyzes feature scores for each of the content sources. The feature scores indicate usage characteristics of the different sources by a current user or groups of users. The features scores for a particular source may be averaged or otherwise combined to create a composite score, and the source having the highest composite score is selected as the source of the requested content.
