Abstract
An approach for assigning definitions to media network channels is described. A demand for program content of a media network channel associated with a first definition relating to resolution of the program content is determined. A second definition is assigned to the media network channel for the program content in response to the demand, wherein the second definition relates to the resolution of the program content and is higher in resolution than the first definition.

13. A method comprising:
-
generating a request for program content of a media network channel, wherein the media network channel is initially associated with a first definition relating to resolution of the program content, wherein a second definition is assigned to the media network channel for the program content in response to a demand determined for the program content, and wherein the second definition relates to the resolution of the program content and is higher in resolution than the first definition. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)
