FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

The subject disclosure relates to presenting content to customer devices over a network, and more particularly to a system for caching content at a user device and presenting that content without causing network congestion.

BACKGROUND

Various techniques have been deployed in content delivery networks to reduce bandwidth consumed by delivery of content. A common technique to reducing video bandwidth is data compression, which provides network subscribers with degraded service relative to delivery of native content. During periods of high network congestion, bandwidth needed to sustain multimedia traffic is generally not optimized.
