Abstract

Systems, methods, and devices related to providing content items from a collection of content items. The embodiments disclosed enhance user experience by keeping track of which content items were already played to a user, and skipping those content items automatically. The embodiments disclosed herein also can enable a user to limit playing of content items to those that have been added since the last time contents items from the collection of content items were played. If the user selects to receive additional content items after receiving the newly added items, the system can provide the older unplayed content items after the newly added content news items have been played.
