In a system (100) for managing and updating metadata associated with an asse t, an asset provider (5) can associate the asset with metadata. The asset provider (5) can send an asset bundle comprising the metadata and the asset to the distribution endpoints via a satellite (40). In the event the asset provider (5) modifies or updates the metadata associated with the asset, the asset provider (5) can identify which distribution endpoints are to receive the updated metadata. After identifying which distribution endpoints are to receive the updated metadata, the asset provider (5) can send the updated metadata without manual intervention to each of these distribution endpoints . Alternatively, the metadata may be stored by a metadata administrator (60, 80), and the metadata may be sent to distribution endpoints upon the metadat a administrator (60,80) receiving a request for the metadata from the distribution endpoints.
