A mediaset component provides for users to generate mediasets. A user-generated mediaset can include a user-generated playlist or a user-generated media channel. A monitoring component monitors consumption of media, e.g., by a consumer. A relatedness component determines a set of the user-generated mediasets that are related to the media consumed by the consumer. A recommendation component recommends a subset of the user-generated mediasets based on a set of criteria. A rights management component determines a set of authorizations of the consumer for respective media content associated with the set of user-generated mediasets, and takes at least one action based on the set of authorizations, e.g., updating one of the mediasets based on the set of authorizations. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method for identifying user-generated media, the method comprising: determining that at least one media content item from a first user-generated playlist of media content items of a plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items is being viewed by a first entity; in response to determining that the at least one media content item is being viewed by the first entity, determining a plurality of relatedness values between the first user-generated playlist of media content items and each of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items, wherein each of the plurality of relatedness values indicates relatedness as a function of attributes associated with the first user-generated playlist of media content items; and recommending a subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items to the first entity based on a ranking of the plurality of relatedness values, wherein the recommendations are presented with a group of actions available to the first entity relating to the subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the plurality of relatedness values is determined based on user behavior between the first user-generated playlist of media content items and each of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The method of claim 2, wherein the user behavior is a review of a media content item. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items are selected based on each of the subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items satisfying authorization criteria. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The method of claim 4, wherein the group of actions available to the first entity are selected based on the authorization criteria. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: receiving, from the first entity, an indication that the first user-generated playlist of media content items is to be modified based on the subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items, wherein an action of the group of actions is modifying the first user-generated playlist of media content items; and in response to receiving the indication, modifying the first user-generated playlist of media content items. ### Claim 7 A system for identifying user-generated media, the system comprising: a hardware processor that is programmed to: determine that at least one media content item from a first user-generated playlist of media content items of a plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items is being viewed by a first entity; in response to determining that the at least one media content item is being viewed by the first entity, determine a plurality of relatedness values between the first user-generated playlist of media content items and each of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items, wherein each of the plurality of relatedness values indicates relatedness as a function of attributes associated with the first user-generated playlist of media content items; and recommend a subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items to the first entity based on a ranking of the plurality of relatedness values, wherein the recommendations are presented with a group of actions available to the first entity relating to the subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The system of claim 7, wherein the plurality of relatedness values is determined based on user behavior between the first user-generated playlist of media content items and each of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The system of claim 8, wherein the user behavior is a review of a media content item. ### Claim 10 (depends on 7) The system of claim 7, wherein the subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items are selected based on each of the subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items satisfying authorization criteria. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The system of claim 10, wherein the group of actions available to the first entity are selected based on the authorization criteria. ### Claim 12 (depends on 7) The system of claim 7, wherein the hardware processor is further programmed to: receive, from the first entity, an indication that the first user-generated playlist of media content items is to be modified based on the subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items, wherein an action of the group of actions is modifying the first user-generated playlist of media content items; and in response to receiving the indication, modify the first user-generated playlist of media content items. ### Claim 13 A non-transitory computer-readable medium, comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed on a computing device, perform a method for identifying user-generated media, the method comprising: determining that at least one media content item from a first user-generated playlist of media content items of a plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items is being viewed by a first entity; in response to determining that the at least one media content item is being viewed by the first entity, determining a plurality of relatedness values between the first user-generated playlist of media content items and each of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items, wherein each of the plurality of relatedness values indicates relatedness as a function of attributes associated with the first user-generated playlist of media content items; and recommending a subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items to the first entity based on a ranking of the plurality of relatedness values, wherein the recommendations are presented with a group of actions available to the first entity relating to the subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13, wherein the plurality of relatedness values is determined based on user behavior between the first user-generated playlist of media content items and each of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 14, wherein the user behavior is a review of a media content item. ### Claim 16 (depends on 13) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13, wherein the subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items are selected based on each of the subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items satisfying authorization criteria. ### Claim 17 (depends on 16) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16, wherein the group of actions available to the first entity are selected based on the authorization criteria. ### Claim 18 (depends on 13) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13, wherein the method further comprises: receiving, from the first entity, an indication that the first user-generated playlist of media content items is to be modified based on the subset of the plurality of user-generated playlists of media content items, wherein an action of the group of actions is modifying the first user-generated playlist of media content items; and in response to receiving the indication, modifying the first user-generated playlist of media content items.
