Method and apparatus to create intuitive favorites for users

A method, comprising:

• monitoring, using one or more hardware processors, actions performed by a user with respect to one or more content programs;
• based on the monitoring, detecting whether the actions satisfy a combination of a first threshold and a second threshold;
• and
• based on detecting that the actions with respect to a first content program of the one or more content programs satisfy both the first threshold and the second threshold, automatically updating a data store to indicate that the first content program is a favorites content program.

A system, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
• monitoring actions performed by a user with respect to one or more content programs;
• based on the monitoring, detecting whether the actions satisfy a combination of a first threshold and a second threshold;
• and
• based on detecting that the actions with respect to a first content program of the one or more content programs satisfy both the first threshold and the second threshold, automatically updating a data store to indicate that the first content program is a favorites content program.

A non-transitory machine-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a machine, causes the machine to perform operations comprising:

• monitoring actions performed by a user with respect to one or more content programs;
• based on the monitoring, detecting whether the actions satisfy a combination of a first threshold and a second threshold;
• and
• based on detecting that the actions with respect to a first content program of the one or more content programs satisfy both the first threshold and the second threshold, automatically updating a data store to indicate that the first content program is a favorites content program.
