Abstract

Example techniques disclosed herein relate to location-based music content identification. In an example implementation, a first computing device receives, over one or more networks, a location message comprising location information indicating a particular location of a second computing device at a given time. Based on the location information and the given time, the first computing device determines identification information indicating media content played by one or more playback devices at the particular location and availability information indicating availability of at least one media item of the media content from a media streaming service. The first computing device transmits, over the one or more networks to the second computing device, the identification information indicating the media content and an indication that the at least one media item of the media content is available for playback via the media streaming service.
