Abstract
In one exemplary aspect, a sorted list of scored media content episodes is received with a computing device of a user. Each respective media content episode is scored by an iterative autotuning prediction algorithm, and wherein each element of the sorted list of scored media content episodes comprises a value that represents a likelihood of a user listening to the respective media content episode and a reference to a location of the respective media content episode. A number of bytes of a download iteration for each media content episode is determined based on value that represents a likelihood of the user listening to the respective media content episode and an index of the respective media content episode in the sorted list. It is detected that a mobile device is in the preferred network. The download iteration is implemented for each media content episode when it is detected that the mobile device is in the preferred network.
