Abstract

Systems, methods and media for purchasing and commenting on identified products in media content are provided. In one example, a method comprises receiving media content from a content source and accessing data relating to an aspect of the media content, such as a product or service shown in the media content. The media content is communicated to first and second display devices for presentation to respective first and second users, and the data relating to an aspect of the media content is also sent to the first and second devices for presentation to the first and second users at about the same time. User commentary generated by the first or second user associated with the media content or the data relating to an aspect of the media content is received from the first or second device. Based on the commentary received, the first or second user is enabled to access a network-based marketplace from the first or second device to locate a listing of an item corresponding to the product or service shown in the media content.
