A distributed network (12) which is capable of dynamically changing media resource request metafiles, as well as the responses to those media resource requests by media servers (14) in the network (10), to provide more efficient content delivery in the network (10). The network (10) employs a system and method for intercepting a media resource request metafile client request, or a response to the media resource request by a media server (14) in the network (10), and intelligently rewriting the response before sending it back to the requesting client. The file or protocol response can be rewritten according to localized information such as resource availability and client request information which the centralized web server may not have or even be able to obtain. |
