Abstract

A system (29, 39, 59) generate s spoiled audio thumbnails representing corresponding audio content items for a user to browse, such that during audio presentation of a given thumbnail the audio presentation is spoiled by a voice over or similar, but still enables recognition of the corresponding audio content item. This can encourage users to access the original item, and avoid the original items being regenerated from the thumbnails, or being enjoyed instead of the original. This is particularly useful where the audio thumbnail has some value itself, such as for u se as a ringtone by mobile users. It can be useful for music libraries and search engines.
