Abstract:
1. A method comprising: analyzing, by a metadata subscription system, one or more media content instances accessed by an access device associated with a user; automatically generating, by the metadata subscription system, one or more metadata values descriptive of content included in the one or more media content instances accessed by the access device associated with the user based on the analysis of the one or more media content instances; receiving, by the metadata subscription system, data representative of a subscription by the user to the one or more metadata values; identifying, by the metadata subscription system during a predetermined time period associated with the subscription, at least one media content instance other than the one or more media content instances that has the one or more metadata values descriptive of the content included in the one or more media content instances; providing, by the metadata subscription system, the user with access to the identified at least one media content instance via the access device during the predetermined time period associated with the subscription; and discontinuing, by the metadata subscription system, the access of the user to the identified at least one media content instance via the access device after the predetermined time period associated with the subscription has elapsed.
