Abstract

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a request for accelerated delivery of a specified media stream. The method also includes deciding to grant or deny the accelerated delivery request based on a group of factors including resource usage, current network congestion, or a combination thereof. The method also includes responding to the accelerated delivery request with a response indicating the decision to grant or deny.
