Streaming content based on skip histories

A system comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to perform operations comprising:
• receiving a request for content from a first receiver associated with a first user;
• determining that the first user is a member of a cluster of a plurality of users;
• determining a crowd source skip history for the requested content for the cluster using a plurality of skip commands associated with the requested content from a plurality of receivers associated with at least a subset of the plurality of users of the cluster;
• determining that the plurality of skip commands are selections of new content from the plurality of receivers at a timestamp of the requested content;
• determining user-specific new content to provide to the first user based on a viewing profile of the first user;
• and
• transmitting the requested content to the first receiver associated with the first user who is a member of the cluster, wherein at the timestamp, the determined user-specific new content is provided to the first user based on the viewing profile of the first user in lieu of a subsequent portion of the requested content after the timestamp.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by at least one computing device, cause the at least one computing device to perform operations comprising:

• receiving a request for content from a first receiver associated with a first user;
• determining that the first user is a member of a cluster of a plurality of users;
• determining a crowd source skip history for the requested content for the cluster using a plurality of skip commands associated with the requested content from a plurality of receivers associated with at least a subset of the plurality of users of the cluster;
• determining that the plurality of skip commands are selections of new content from the plurality of receivers at a timestamp of the requested content;
• determining user-specific new content to provide to the first user based on a viewing profile of the first user;
• and
• transmitting the requested content to the first receiver associated with the first user who is a member of the cluster, wherein at the timestamp, the determined user-specific new content is provided to the first user based on the viewing profile of the first user in lieu of a subsequent portion of the requested content after the timestamp.
