• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing one or more programs for execution by the one or more processors, the one or more programs comprising instructions for:
• streaming a first media item from a first playlist, the first playlist comprising a plurality of media items curated for a user using a first recommendation hypothesis;
• while streaming the first media item, in response to a first user request for initiating a differently-curated next playlist, selecting, without user intervention, the differently-curated next playlist, distinct from the first playlist, including:
• determining a presentation order of a plurality of playlists, each playlist including a plurality of media items curated using a respective recommendation hypothesis, using a heuristic applied to the plurality of playlists, wherein:
• a second playlist is selected as the differently-curated next playlist after the first playlist in the presentation order;
• and
• the second playlist is curated for the user using a second recommendation hypothesis, wherein the second recommendation hypothesis curates media items differently than the first recommendation hypothesis;
• and
• streaming a second media item from the second playlist.
