Methods for predicting network access probability of data files accessible over a computer network are provided. In one aspect, a method includes generating a primary data vector for a media file based on a stored data representation of the file, and providing the data vector for the file to an algorithm that uses past interaction information for at least one other media file from a collection of media files having a degree of similarity with the media file above a threshold similarity value. The method also includes receiving, as an output of the algorithm, a marketability score for the media file, the score indicative of a likelihood that a user will download the media file. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.
