1. A device, comprising:
- a memory having stored thereon computer executable components; and
a processor configured to execute the following computer executable components stored in the memory;
a caching component that caches a subset of media segments received by the device, from a media server, based on relevance of the subset of the media segments to a user of the device, popularity of the subset of the media segments amongst a group of users, and the subset of the media segments being the same as another subset of media segments concurrently cached to a second device associated with another user belonging to a same social circle as the user; and
a media delivery component that presents the subset of the media segments via an interface of the device.

Abstract
Devices and methods for receiving sections of media content and receiving ranked content and caching sections of content are disclosed herein. Media content can be received by a device and filtered as a function of relevance to user interest. In an aspect, the device can receive sections of the content ranked based at least in part on popularity and respective sections of the media content can be cached based on the ranking. In another aspect, the device can present subset of the cached media content sections to users belonging to social circle networks and social circles.

21. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution, cause a device including a processor to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving media segments from a media server; caching a subset of the media segments based on relevance of the subset of the media segments to a user of the device, popularity of the subset of the media segments amongst a group of users, and the subset of the media segments being the same as another subset of media segments concurrently cached to a second device associated with another user belonging to a same social circle as the user; and presenting the subset of the media segments to the user of the device via an interface of the device.
