Abstract: A web server, a polling server, a client subscriber, and a plurality of media providers communicate with each other via a network. Media providers enlist the services of an Affinity Broadcast Network to provide their media content to a client subscriber. Likewise, a client subscriber contacts the Affinity Broadcast Network to subscribe for the delivery of media content from a media provider. The Affinity Broadcast Network monitors the media provider in order to determine when media content is available to be delivered to the client subscriber. When media content is available the Affinity Broadcast Network instructs the client subscriber to request the media content from the media provider and the media content is “pushed” to the client subscriber. The media providers may be located in various locations.
