Original Abstract Submitted

This document describes systems and techniques for presenting intermediate media to a user that has presented a media request. In aspects, a media request for requested media is received from an input device. The media request is provided to a media service to serve the requested media to a requested device. The media request is processed to identify attributes of the media request indicative of a subject matter of the requested media. Based on the identified attributes of the media request, intermediate media is accessed including one or more images related to the identified attributes. The intermediate media is delivered to the requested device. Accordingly, the intermediate media provides content to engage the user while the user waits for the requested media to be delivered.
