Zusammenfassung:The storage of items, such as media items, in a playback device may be managed automatically without user intervention in some embodiments. An algorithm, based on heuristics, may predict which items are most likely to be used or played in the future and, based on that determination, may select the least likely to be used items for replacement. In addition, replacement may be affected by the size of space needed for additional storage versus the size of particular candidates for replacement.
