AGGREGATING AND NORMALIZING ENTERTAINMENT MEDIA

摘要

Disclosed are methods for making disparate entertainment media content (e.g., television or movies) from multiple sources available through a single interface of a user device. Content of varying data formats from multiple data sources are aggregated. Classifications of the media data are created which can include assigning content into clusters. The data are normalized, and attributes of the data are curated. Features also are provided to automatically synchronize, obtain, and update media content on the media sources and on client devices. Various ways of handling data aggregation and normalization issues associated with compiling media data also are described.
