Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for generating and providing an authorization indication in relation to a media content item. In one implementation, a processing device receives, from a first entity, a selection of a first media content item, the first media content item being associated with a media content provider. The processing device generates, in relation to the first media content item, an authorization indication, the authorization indication reflecting an authorization of the first entity to provide the first media content item in relation to a media sharing service. The processing device provides the authorization indication.

Claims (41)

1 . A computer-implemented method comprising:

receiving, from a first entity, a selection of a first media content item, the first media content item being associated with a media content provider;

generating, with a processing device and in relation to the first media content item, an authorization indication, the authorization indication reflecting an authorization of the first entity to provide the first media content item in relation to a media sharing service; and

providing the authorization indication.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein generating an authorization indication comprises generating an authorization token.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein providing the authorization indication comprises providing the authorization indication to an authorization token generator.

4 . The method of claim 3 , wherein the authorization token generator comprises a media content store.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein providing the authorization indication comprises providing the first media content item, in conjunction with the authorization indication, to a media content store.

6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, at a media content store and in conjunction with the authorization indication, a second media content item, the second media content item comprising one or more aspects of the first media content item; and

processing the second media content item to determine one or more similarities between the second media content item and one or more media content items in the media content store.

7 . The method of claim 6 , further comprising:

based on a determination of one or more similarities between the second media content item and one or more media content items in the media content store, processing the authorization indication to determine an authorization status of the second media content item.

8 . The method of claim 7 , wherein processing the authorization indication comprises processing one or more parameters of the authorization indication to determine an authorization status of the second media content item.

9 . The method of claim 7 , further comprising: based on a determination that the authorization status of the second media content item is unauthorized, initiating one or more actions with respect to the second media content item.

10 . A system comprising:

a memory; and

a processing device, coupled to the memory, to:

receive, from a first entity, a selection of a first media content item, the first media content item being associated with a media content provider;

generate, in relation to the first media content item, an authorization indication that reflects an authorization of the first entity to provide the first media content item in relation to a media sharing service; and

provide the authorization indication.

11 . The system of claim 10 , wherein to generate an authorization indication is to generate an authorization token.

12 . The system of claim 10 , wherein to provide the authorization indication is to provide the authorization indication to an authorization token generator.

13 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the authorization token generator comprises a media content store.

14 . The system of claim 10 , wherein to provide the authorization indication is to provide the first media content item, in conjunction with the authorization indication, to a media content store.

15 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the processing device is further to:

receive, at a media content store and in conjunction with the authorization indication, a second media content item, the second media content item comprising one or more aspects of the first media content item; and

process the second media content item to determine one or more similarities between the second media content item and one or more media content items in the media content store.

16 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the processing device is further to:

process the authorization indication, based on a determination of one or more similarities between the second media content item and one or more media content items in the media content store, to determine an authorization status of the second media content item.

17 . The system of claim 16 , wherein to process the authorization indication is to process one or more parameters of the authorization indication to determine an authorization status of the second media content item.

18 . The system of claim 16 , wherein the processing device is further to:

Initiate one or more actions with respect to the second media content item, based on a determination that the authorization status of the second media content item is unauthorized.

19 . A computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

receiving, from a first entity, a selection of a first media content item, the first media content item being associated with a media content provider;

generating, in relation to the first media content item, an authorization indication, the authorization indication reflecting an authorization of the first entity to provide the first media content item in relation to a media sharing service; and

providing the authorization indication.

20 . The computer readable medium of claim 19 , further comprising:

receiving, at a media content store and in conjunction with the authorization indication, a second media content item, the second media content item comprising one or more aspects of the first media content item;

processing the second media content item to determine one or more similarities between the second media content item and one or more media content items in the media content store; and

based on a determination of one or more similarities between the second media content item and one or more media content items in the media content store, processing the authorization indication to determine an authorization status of the second media content item.
