1. A method for recommending media content, the method comprising:
at an electronic device having a microphone, one or more processors, and memory storing one or more programs for execution by the one or more processors:
detecting a volume change event;
determining whether the volume change event corresponds with one or more expected volume change events within the media content being presented; and
causing at least one content recommendation to be presented based on a first determination that the volume change event does not correspond with the one or more expected volume change events within the media content being presented and based on a second determination of a level of user interest based on the volume change event.
