Systems and methods for temporary access to media content

1. A method of controlling media presentation in a vehicle, comprising, at a first server with one or more processors and memory storing instructions for execution by the one or more processors:

in response to a user reserving a vehicle through a transportation service provider via a first application that is associated with the transportation service provider and is on a mobile device of the user:

receiving a first identifier generated by a second application on the mobile device, the second application being associated with the media content provider and distinct from the first application; and

in response to receiving the first identifier:

generating a first security token that is distinct from the first identifier,

sending the first security token to a device in communication with a media presentation system of the reserved vehicle,

generating a second security token, and

sending the second security token to the mobile device of the user,

wherein the first security token and the second security token are used to establish a communication connection between the device in communication with the media presentation system and the mobile device;

receiving a first request to present a first media item of the one or more media items at a media presentation system of the reserved vehicle, he first request being initiated via the second application on the mobile device of the user; and

in response to receiving the first request, sending a portion of the first media item to the mobile device, which then transmits the portion of the first media item via the communication connection, to the device in communication with the media presentation system.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first server is associated with the media content provider.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first identifier is an authorization code.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the first server receives the authorization code from a second server associated with the transportation service provider.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the device in communication with the media presentation system is a device associated with an operator of the reserved vehicle.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein:

the portion of the first media item is a first portion scheduled to be played back before an estimated arrival time of the reserved vehicle at a pick-up location for the user;

a second portion of the first media item is scheduled to be played back after the estimated arrival time; and

the method further comprises sending the second portion of the first media item to the mobile device, which then transmits the second portion of the media item, via the communication connection, to the device associated with the operator of the reserved vehicle.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, at the first server:

selecting the first media item from a playlist associated with the second application based on a determination that the first media item is scheduled by the media content provider to be playing at an estimated arrival time of the reserved vehicle at a pick-up location for the user.

8. The method of claim 7 , further comprising, at the first server:

receiving an indication that the estimated arrival time for the reserved vehicle at the pick-up location for the user has been updated; and

in response to receiving the indication, sending a different portion of the first media item for presentation at the media presentation system, wherein the different portion of the first media item is scheduled by the media content provider to be playing at the updated estimated arrival time.

9. A first server, comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory storing one or more programs that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the first server to:

in response to a user reserving a vehicle through a transportation service provider via a first application that is associated with the transportation service provider and is on a mobile device of the user:

receiving a first identifier generated by a second application on the mobile device, the second application being associated with the media content provider and distinct from the first application; and

in response to receiving the first identifier:

generating a first security token that is distinct from the first identifier,

sending the first security token to a device in communication with a media presentation system of the reserved vehicle,

generating a second security token, and

sending the second security token to the mobile device of the user,

wherein the first security token and the second security token are used to establish a communication connection between the device in communication with the media presentation system and the mobile device;

receive a first request to present a first media item of the one or more media items at a media presentation system of the reserved vehicle, the first request being initiated via the second application on the mobile device of the user; and

in response to receiving the first request, send a portion of the first media item to the mobile device, which then transmits the portion of the first media item, via the communication connection, to the device in communication with the media presentation system.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs configured for execution by one or more processors of a first server, the one or more programs comprising instructions for:

in response to a user reserving a vehicle through a transportation service provider via a first application that is associated with the transportation service provider and is on a mobile device of the user:

receiving a first identifier generated by a second application on the mobile device, the second application being associated with the media content provider and distinct from the first application; and

in response to receiving the first identifier:

generating a first security token that is distinct from the first identifier,

sending the first security token to a device in communication with a media presentation system of the reserved vehicle,

generating a second security token, and

sending the second security token to the mobile device of the user,

wherein the first security token and the second security token are used to establish a communication connection between the device in communication with the media presentation system and the mobile device;

receiving a first request to present a first media item of the one or more media items at a media presentation system of the reserved vehicle, the first request being initiated via the second application on the mobile device of the user; and

in response to receiving the first request, sending a portion of the first media item to the mobile device, which then transmits the portion of the first media item, via the communication connection, to the device in communication with the media presentation system.
