Abstract
An embodiment may involve, based on a profile associated with a client device, selecting an audio file containing music. Based on an attribute of the audio file containing the music, an audio file containing a story may be selected. A playlist for the client device may be generated, where the playlist includes (i) a reference to the audio file containing the music, and (ii) a reference to the audio file containing the story. A server device may transmit the playlist to the client device over a wide area network. Reception of the playlist at the client device may cause an audio player application to retrieve and play out each of the audio file containing the music and the audio file containing the story.
