Perhaps obviously this is the same technique that enables ACR on TVs.

It occurs to me that Shazam has such a better reputation online because the intent and consent of the user is honored.

It makes me wonder if there couldn’t be an implementation on TVs that is similar and actually is a net positive for consumers. Basically would customers actually like TV ACR if the data wasn’t just going to sell more ads?

So the value-add would be the consumer would get to find out the name of the show or movie that’s playing, the same info that also pops up if they hit the pause button?

I was thinking more like interactive content. Do you remember when VH1 had a pop-up music video show?

Shows could synchronize additional content that’d be visible when Shazam mode enabled.

We did this on Fire Phone for live sports and audio based X-Ray cast info. It was, like everything about that phone, a really fun tech demo.

Pop. Pop. Pop Up Video.

I find Youtube's watch history helpful, having that across everything I watched on my device would be even better.
