Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for caching media content on a client, comprising organizing media subjects in a predefined media package structure, and downloading said structure to the client in order for a user to consume the subjects in said structure. The media structure is arranged to allow a user to request media subjects by navigating from a current subject to adjacent subjects in the structure, and these adjacent subjects are cached at the client in advance, before the user requests them. By downloading the adjacent media subjects, the user will get the impression that the entire media structure is cached, and will not experience any download delays.
