The invention includes a method and apparatus for predicting value of caching content items. In one embodiment, a method for selecting ones of a plurality of content items to be cached includes, for each of the content items, determining a probability of use of the content item comprising a probability that the content item will be used if cached, determining a value of caching the content item, and computing a caching value estimate associated with the content item using the probability of use of the content item and the value of caching the content item. The content items to be cached may then be selected using the respective caching value estimates of the content items.
