A system and technique is described to enhance the use of limited bandwidth by intelligent broadcast, which would allow many more users to access content that was broadcast or downloaded by another user or group of users. While many users may download content that is specific to them, e.g., a flight itinerary, other users download the exact same content, e.g., a song or a movie, so the net result is that a significant portion of finite bandwidth is used repeatedly to download the same content. Furthermore, users, based on the type of user, or profiled users, will download the same content in the same general time period, for example, the release of a popular new album, movie or video. Content providers and wireless providers, who may be the same or different entities, may then share in the benefits of this approach, e.g., the savings in bandwidth usage and the improved distribution to the end user.
