SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONNECTING A PLURALITY OF USERS BASED ON A COMMON INTEREST IN AN UNPOPULAR MEDIA ASSET

摘要

Systems and methods for connecting a plurality of users based on a common interest in an unpopular media asset are provided. A request from a first user to access a media asset is received. A determination is made that the media asset is unpopular by determining that popularity of the media asset is below a threshold. In response to determining that the media asset is unpopular, information, associated with the media asset, is retrieved that identifies a plurality of other users that have requested access to the media asset. A second user is selected from the plurality of other users. An indication is generated for the first user that indicates the second user has a common interest in the media asset that is unpopular.
