Systems and methods for ensuring continued access to media of a playlist despite geographic content restrictions

A method for automatically downloading a copy of streaming media of a playlist that is inaccessible at a geographic location to which a user intends to travel, the method comprising:

• detecting information that indicates that a user will be traveling from a first geographic location to a second geographic location;
• in response to the detecting, accessing a playlist indicated by a profile of the user that indicates a plurality of streaming media that the user intends to consume;
• comparing data corresponding to each streaming media of the plurality of streaming media to entries of a database to determine whether each streaming media of the plurality of streaming media is accessible to the user at the second geographic location;
• determining, based on the comparing, that a subset of the plurality of media is not accessible to the user at the second geographic location;
• and
• in response to determining that the subset is not accessible to the user at the second geographic location, downloading each media of the subset.

A system for automatically downloading a copy of streaming media of a playlist that is inaccessible at a geographic location to which a user intends to travel, the system comprising:

• storage circuitry;
• communications circuitry;
• and
• control circuitry configured to:
• detect information that indicates that a user will be traveling from a first geographic location to a second geographic location;
• in response to the detecting, access, using the communications circuitry, a playlist indicated by a profile of the user that indicates a plurality of streaming media that the user intends to consume;
• compare data corresponding to each streaming media of the plurality of streaming media to entries of a database to determine whether each streaming media of the plurality of streaming media is accessible to the user at the second geographic location;
• determine that a subset of the plurality of media is not accessible to the user at the second geographic location;
• and
• in response to determining that the subset is not accessible to the user at the second geographic location, download to the storage circuitry, using the communications circuitry, each media of the subset.
