Abstract

This disclosure relates to methods of tracking user navigation, consumption and / or behavior, and applying analytics to help tailor future offerings to users (custom offerings, upsells, recommendations, etc.) and reporting data to service providers and studios . Methods and systems for providing viewing recommendations to users are set forth. This involves collecting usage data for an interactive session involving a user; processing user data for that session; and providing feedback about that session. The session involves multiple stages of tracking the user's interactions. These include phases such as Inquiry Phase, Results Phase, Details Phase, Selection Phase; and Confirmation Phase. Afterwards, mining usage data, regardless of the property type, represents the content creator of the property.

Background technique [0004] Traditional usage tracking on media devices tends to focus on selecting resulting content from a limited number of sources. These systems do not track the process of how the selected content was arrived at. [0005] For example, the Nelson rating system only tracks what broadcast television programs are being watched. One limitation of this type of system is that it does not track or otherwise take into account other types of media (DVR recordings, VOD selections, Internet content, etc.) that may be...
