Described herein are techniques for providing one or more users with access to content obtained from a plurality of content providers. In some embodiments, such techniques may comprise maintaining a number of access credentials associated with a plurality of different content providers, obtaining access to a plurality of media content libraries, each of the plurality of media content libraries managed by a content provider of the plurality of different content providers, and providing the plurality of media content libraries to at least one user device as a single library of media content. Such techniques may further comprise receiving, from the user device, a selection of a media content from the single library of media content and providing, to the user device, access to the selected media content within a corresponding media content library of the plurality of media content libraries using an access credential.

Integrated content portal for accessing aggregated content

A universal subscription platform may determine whether information for one or more third-party services or one or more third-party media content files are to be presented via the common ordering interface portal based at least on a network subscription plan of a user with a wireless carrier network. In response to the network subscription plan being a first subscription plan, the universal subscription platform may provide the information on the one or more third-party services for presentation via the common ordering interface portal. In response to the network subscription plan being a second subscription plan, the universal subscription platform may provide the information on the one or more third-party media content files for presentation via the common ordering interface portal.

Common ordering interface portal for obtaining third-party services and content

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for optimizing streaming content are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of determining that a user device participating in a content streaming service will transition from a first wireless service coverage area to a second wireless service coverage area that provides a lower quality wireless service relative to the first wireless service coverage area. The actions further include, prior to the user device transitioning from the first wireless service coverage area to the second wireless service coverage area, increasing a resource associated with the content streaming service and the user device. The actions further include, after the user device transitions from the first wireless service coverage area to the second wireless service coverage area, decreasing the resource associated with the content streaming service and the user device.
