Method and communication system for providing a content delivery service through push-to-talk

A method of providing a push-to-x service to a user of a data terminal which is connected to a packet-switched network includes, at a gateway interfacing the packet-switched network and the framework supporting the push-to-x service: receiving from the data terminal a request for accessing the push-to-x service; checking a user class to which the user belongs; and, according to the user class, assigning a push-to-x identity to the user either by selecting the push-to-x identity from a set of predefined push-to-x identities, or by retrieving the push-to-x identity from a user profile table; and accessing the framework and the push-to-x service by using the push-to-x identity.
