A method for managing content distribution in a collaborative media system, wherein a first media data is transmitted over a first channel path to a first media terminal and a second media data relevant to the first media data is transmitted over a second channel path to a second media terminal, the method comprising:

  • detecting a quality of the first media data on the first channel path and a quality of the second media data on the second channel path;

    when the quality of the first media data is lower than a first value and the quality of the second media data is greater than a second value, transmitting the second media data over the second channel path, instead of the first media data over the first channel path, to the first media terminal; and

    wherein the quality of the first media data on the first channel path the quality of the second media data on the second channel path are detected as a function of a priority level of a lost packet and a packet loss rate of each media data.
