Abstract
An access node (101) according to the invention is able to multicast a plurality of video channels to subscribers, and to cache N of these video channels. To select the N video channels for caching, the access node (101) determines for each video channel a weighted sum of the zapping rate rk to channel k and the channel popularity πk. The N video channels that have the highest values for this weighted sum are cached by the access node (101).
