A media system for sharing, accessing and managing stored media content between a plurality of networked Set-Top Boxes (STB) (3a, 3b, 3c). The networking may be through local area network (LAN), satellite network or other connections. Aspects include displaying a global STB planner listing media content stored on all remote STBs, switching between remote STB planners and filtering remote listings of media content. The television set (5) of the first user is used for obtaining access to the television sets of other users (5b, 5c) after access criteria are met. Viewer cards, subscription identification codes, or viewer age information may form the basis of the access criteria. |
