Abstract

A system receives a user request for a media item and identifies candidate media items for suggesting to the user with the media item. The system predicts a user consumption time for each candidate media item and selects a sub-set of the candidate media items that have higher predicted user consumption times. The system provides the requested media item with the sub-set of the candidate media items.
