A method is provided of providing digital assets in a network comprising a central controller connected to a plurality of servers. Each asset comprises at least one of video data and audio data. Each server serves a group of user terminals by storing a respective selected set of the assets and providing an asset from the selected set to a user terminal onrequest. The method comprises, for at least one of the servers, selecting which assets to store by the steps of: (a) for each of the group of user terminals served by the server receiving a recommendation as to a set of assets predicted as most likely to be desired by the individual user terminal, said recommendations being adapted to the individual users of said individual user terminals; (b) determining from the recommendations, a list of the most likely to be requested assets for the group of users; and (c) updating the assets stored in the server so that the listed most likely to be requested assets are stored in the server. |
