Abstract
Systems and methods for tracking and identifying of a series of user requests in media streaming applications. Traditional media streaming requires a set of sequential, stateless user requests for content and do not support cookies or other user identification methods. The present application provides a framework for associating sequences of user media requests falling within a prescribed time window using multiple inputs to download requests for purposes of identifying and reconciling individual downloads.
