Abstract

A content distribution system generates a queue of content for a user account, including content available from a network content server and content that has been preloaded from the network content server to a home content reservoir. A wireless end-user device can request streaming of queue content from either location. At least for content streamed to the wireless end-user device directly from the network content server, the media quality of the streamed content is dependent on a current network type to which the wireless end-user device is connected.
