CONTENT RECOMMENDATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH CONTEXT PROVIDED BY A VIEWER
Various features described herein may be embodied in various apparatuses. An apparatus may recommend content to a viewer. The apparatus may receive a selection from the viewer of a condition to associate with the content. The condition may be included in a list of conditions displayed for the viewer. The condition may be a period of time selected by the viewer. The condition may be a weather condition selected by the viewer. The context condition may a location selected by the viewer. When the condition does not exist, the apparatus may refrain from providing the content as a recommendation for the viewer. Afterwards, the apparatus may add the content to a queue associated with the content. When the condition does exist, the apparatus may provide the content as a recommendation for the viewer. Various methods and computer-readable medium may also provide various embodiments of such features.

the condition comprises a location selected by the viewer; and
the condition exists when a current location of the viewer matches the selected location.
15 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions executable by a processor to:
determine a condition to associate with content;
refrain from providing the content as s recommendation for the viewer when the condition does not exist; and
provide the content as a recommendation for the viewer when the condition exists, wherein the recommendation is a queue associated with the condition for the content.
16 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the non-transitory computer-readable medium further comprises computer-executable instructions executable to:
add the content to the queue after refraining from providing the content as a recommendation for the viewer.
17 . (canceled)
18 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the condition is included in a list of contexts conditions displayed to the viewer.
19 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein:
the condition comprises a period of time selected by the viewer; and
the condition exists when a current time is during the selected period of time.
20 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein:
the condition comprises a weather condition selected by the viewer; and
the condition exits when a current weather condition near the viewer matches the selected weather condition.
21 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein:
