Playlist analytics

1. A method comprising:

capturing first data associated with access to a playlist comprising first content, wherein the playlist comprises a first default sequence of content items;

identifying, in the captured first data, a first plurality of interactions with the first content of the playlist, wherein the first plurality of interactions correspond to deviations from the first default sequence of content items;

generating, by a processing device, a plurality of metrics based on the first plurality of interactions, the plurality of metrics comprising a first metric and a second metric, the first metric indicating approval of a first content item of the playlist, the second metric indicating a first duration of playback of a second content item of the playlist during playback of the playlist, wherein the first duration of playback of the second content item during the playback of the playlist is greater than a first default duration of playback, and wherein the second metric indicates a deviation from the first default sequence of content items of the playlist;

reporting at least the first metric and the second metric;

receiving a modified playlist, the modified playlist being the playlist modified based on at least the first metric, wherein the modified playlist comprises a second default sequence of content items;

capturing second data associated with access to the modified playlist; and

identifying, in the captured second data, a second plurality of interactions with second content of the modified playlist, wherein the second plurality of interactions correspond to deviations from the second default sequence of content items, and wherein the second plurality of interactions correspond to fewer deviations than the first plurality of interactions.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of metrics further comprises a third metric that indicates a second duration of playback of a third content item of the playlist during the playback of the playlist, wherein the second duration of playback of the third content item is less than a second default duration of playback.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first plurality of interactions comprise user input during the playback of the playlist to exit the playback of the playlist.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first plurality of interactions comprise user input during the playback of the playlist to skip one or more portions of the playlist.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the data is associated with the access to the playlist during the playback of the playlist, wherein the first plurality of interactions with the playlist are during the playback of the playlist.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the playlist is associated with a playlist curator, and wherein the reporting of the at least the first metric and the second metric is to the playlist curator.

7. A computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that, in response to execution, cause a processing device to perform operations, comprising:

capturing first data associated with access to a playlist comprising first content, wherein the playlist comprises a first default sequence of content items;

identifying, in the captured first data, a first plurality of interactions with the first content of the playlist, wherein the first plurality of interactions correspond to deviations from the first default sequence of content items;

generating a plurality of metrics based on the first plurality of interactions, the plurality of metrics comprising a first metric and a second metric, the first metric indicating approval of a first content item of the playlist, the second metric indicating a first duration of playback of a second content item of the playlist during playback of the playlist, wherein the first duration of playback of the second content item during the playback of the playlist is greater than a first default duration of playback, and wherein the second metric indicates a deviation from the first default sequence of content items of the playlist;

reporting at least the first metric and the second metric;

receiving a modified playlist, the modified playlist being the playlist modified based on at least the first metric, wherein the modified playlist comprises a second default sequence of content items;

capturing second data associated with access to the modified playlist; and

identifying, in the captured second data, a second plurality of interactions with second content of the modified playlist, wherein the second plurality of interactions correspond to deviations from the second default sequence of content items, and wherein the second plurality of interactions correspond to fewer deviations than the first plurality of interactions.

8. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 7 , wherein the plurality of metrics further comprises a third metric that indicates a second duration of playback of a third content item of the playlist during the playback of the playlist, wherein the second duration of playback of the third content item is less than a second default duration of playback.

9. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 7 , wherein the first plurality of interactions comprise user input during the playback of the playlist to exit the playback of the playlist.

10. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 7 , wherein the first plurality of interactions comprise user input during the playback of the playlist to skip one or more portions of the playlist.

11. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 7 , wherein the data is associated with the access to the playlist during the playback of the playlist, wherein the first plurality of interactions with the playlist are during the playback of the playlist.

12. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 7 , wherein the playlist is associated with a playlist curator, and wherein the reporting of the at least the first metric and the second metric is to the playlist curator.

13. An apparatus, comprising:

a memory; and

a processor, coupled to the memory, to:

capture first data associated with access to a playlist comprising first content, wherein the playlist comprises a first default sequence of content items;

identify, in the captured first data, a first plurality of interactions with the first content of the playlist, wherein the first plurality of interactions correspond to deviations from the first default sequence of content items;

generate a plurality of metrics based on the first plurality of interactions, the plurality of metrics comprising a first metric and a second metric, the first metric indicating approval of a first content item of the playlist, the second metric indicating a first duration of playback of a second content item of the playlist during playback of the playlist, wherein the first duration of playback of the second content item during the playback of the playlist is greater than a first default duration of playback, and wherein the second metric indicates a deviation from the first default sequence of content items of the playlist;

report at least the first metric and the second metric;

receive a modified playlist, the modified playlist being the playlist modified based on at least the first metric, wherein the modified playlist comprises a second default sequence of content items;

capture second data associated with access to the modified playlist; and

identify, in the captured second data, a second plurality of interactions with second content of the modified playlist, wherein the second plurality of interactions correspond to deviations from the second default sequence of content items, and wherein the second plurality of interactions correspond to fewer deviations than the first plurality of interactions.

14. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the plurality of metrics further comprises a third metric that indicates a second duration of playback of a third content item of the playlist during the playback of the playlist, wherein the second duration of playback of the third content item is less than a second default duration of playback.

15. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the first plurality of interactions comprise user input during the playback of the playlist to exit the playback of the playlist.
