Abstract: The present technology pertains to automatically providing refreshed versions of personalized playlists of media items based on a refresh schedule. The automatically refreshed personalized playlists can be automatically downloaded to a client device associated with the user account. In some embodiments an animation can be presented to show that a playlist was automatically refreshed. The automatically refreshed personalized playlist can be created based on an assumption that playlists are a collection of media items that go well together in a collection.

Abstract: Some implementations allow users to create and share data including playlists. Such playlists may be subscribed to by other users. Changes to such playlists, such as updates by the curator of the playlist, must be propagated to subscribers in a timely manner while efficiently utilizing resources. Some implementations allow updates to be propagated using a push notification to cause client devices to request the update (push). Alternatively, updates may be made when the client devices of the subscribers next accesses the system (pull). An aggregator system may be used to make decisions on which users to send push notifications, and which users to wait to pull updates on their own. Additionally, the aggregator may determine that certain playlist updates should be distributed using push notifications. The aggregator may determine that only certain playlist subscribers should receive push notifications regarding playlist updates.
