Abstract
A method accomplishes matching a particular media metadata record to one of a plurality of records of a first media metadata database. For the particular media metadata record, for each of at least some of the tokens of the particular media metadata record, a table is processed that correlates that token to records of the first media metadata database. Based on the processing, it is determined in which of the plurality of records (match candidate records) of the first media metadata database that token of the particular record appears. For each of at least some of the match candidate records of the first media metadata database, a value is determined that indicates a degree of match between that match candidate record and the particular media metadata record. The determined values are processed to determine one of the match candidate records is a nominal match to the particular media metadata record.
