1. A method, comprising:
- generating a key associated with a virtual asset associated with content to be provided to a client device, wherein the key indicates at least one parameter for accessing the content;
generating the virtual asset;
receiving a request for the content;
identifying a format being requested for the content;
using the virtual asset to identify common format content to be retrieved and to identify the key;
using the key to retrieve the common format content; and
transforming the common format content such that it can be delivered to the client device in the format that was requested.
