Abstract
Systems and/or methods are disclosed herein to identify a user interacting with a content presentation system, adaptively learn, in a passive manner, a user's pattern of accessing content over time, and globally store the user's identifying and use information. Specifically, disclosed are systems and/or methods for creating a smart channel tuner list, including determining an identity of a user interacting with a content presentation system, collecting channel switching information from the first channel to each of a plurality of second channels from the user's interaction with the content presentation system, determining a value for each of the plural second channels as a function of the channel switching information, and creating a smart channel tuner list as a function of the determined value.
