Technology for content distribution in wireless mesh network is described. In one embodiment, the wireless mesh network includes a plurality of mesh nodes, wherein each of the mesh nodes includes a content agent configured to receive a content command from a cloud computing content management service communicatively coupled to the wireless mesh network, the content command identifying one or more segments of a media content file corresponding to a media title to be stored on the mesh node. Each mesh node includes a storage system configured to store the one or more segments of the media content file specified in the content command. Each mesh node further includes a content server configured to service requests for playback of the media title from one or more mesh clients. The mesh nodes also include a mesh communication component configured to communicate with other mesh nodes in the wireless mesh network to retrieve segments of the media content file stored on the other nodes.

Technology for content distribution in wireless mesh network is described. In one embodiment, a cloud computing system includes one or more computing devices running a media provider service and a content management service. The media provider service is configured to select a subset of a plurality of media titles having a highest relative popularity available from one or more media content providers for distribution to one or more mesh nodes in a wireless mesh network. The content management service is configured to retrieve media content files corresponding to the subset of the plurality of media titles, divide each of the media content files into a plurality of smaller segments, send at least a portion of the plurality of smaller segments to the one or more mesh nodes in the wireless mesh network.
