Original Abstract Submitted
arrangements for transitioning content are presented herein. a first signal, associated with a media playback device, can be received that includes first user identification information. a first user can be identified based on the first signal. media content can be caused to be presented on the media playback device based on the identification of the first user. a second signal can be received that associated with the media playback device. a determination can be made that the first user has transitioned away from the media playback device based on the second signal. the media content may then no longer be presented by the media playback device in response to determining that the first user has transitioned away from the media playback device.
