A method comprising: causing a stream of media content data to be received by a first device (120 to 126, 402) from a stream source and output by the first device (120 to 126, 402) of a user, wherein a buffered portion of the stream of media content data is buffered on the first device (120 to 126, 402) before being output; detecting an indication that the user has stopped using the first device (120 to 126, 402) for output of the stream of media content data, wherein the detecting includes receiving the indication at a server ; determining a place marker for the stream of media content data indicating a portion of the stream of media content data that is output approximately at the time of the indication, the place marker including an indication of the time elapsed for the stream of media content data with reference to the beginning of the stream of media content data; causing a notification to be sent to an intermediary device (120 to 126, 406), wherein the notification is output by the intermediary device (120 to 126, 406) and provides a continue option selectable by the user; and causing the stream of media content data to be received and output by a second device (120 to 126, 440) different than the intermediary device (120 to 126, 406), wherein the output starts at the portion of the stream of media content data indicated by the place marker and wherein the output of the stream of media content data by the second device (120 to 126, 440) is performed in response to the user selecting the continue option, wherein the buffered portion of the stream of media content data on the first device (120 to 126, 402) is sent in response to a command of the server from the first device (120 to 126, 402) to the second device (120 to 126, 440) for output by the second device (120 to 126, 440) before output of an unbuffered portion of the stream of media content data received by the second device (120 to 126, 440) from the stream source . causing a stream of media content data to be received by a first device (120 to 126, 402) from a stream source and output by the first device (120 to 126, 402) of a user, wherein a buffered portion of the stream of media content data is buffered on the first device (120 to 126, 402) before being output; detecting an indication that the user has stopped using the first device (120 to 126, 402) for output of the stream of media content data, wherein the detecting includes receiving the indication at a server ; determining a place marker for the stream of media content data indicating a portion of the stream of media content data that is output approximately at the time of the indication, the place marker including an indication of the time elapsed for the stream of media content data with reference to the beginning of the stream of media content data; causing a notification to be sent to an intermediary device (120 to 126, 406), wherein the notification is output by the intermediary device (120 to 126, 406) and provides a continue option selectable by the user; and causing the stream of media content data to be received and output by a second device (120 to 126, 440) different than the intermediary device (120 to 126, 406), wherein the output starts at the portion of the stream of media content data indicated by the place marker and wherein the output of the stream of media content data by the second device (120 to 126, 440) is performed in response to the user selecting the continue option, wherein the buffered portion of the stream of media content data on the first device (120 to 126, 402) is sent in response to a command of the server from the first device (120 to 126, 402) to the second device (120 to 126, 440) for output by the second device (120 to 126, 440) before output of an unbuffered portion of the stream of media content data received by the second device (120 to 126, 440) from the stream source . <EOS>
