A device, comprising:
- a processing system including a processor;
- and
- a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations, the operations comprising:
- detecting a first portable communication device that utilizes a first subscriber identity module (SIM), the first portable communication device utilized by a first user;
- receiving first information associated with the first SIM;
- selecting, according to the first information associated with the first SIM, a first user profile selectable from a plurality of user profiles, each user profile in the plurality of user profiles associated with SIM information from a plurality of portable communication devices of differing users, the plurality of portable communication devices including the first portable communication device;
- presenting a first graphical user interface (GUI) with a first plurality of selectable media content that correlates to first preferences identified in the first user profile, each selectable media content of the first plurality of selectable media content being associated with a corresponding one of a plurality of differing media content service providers;
- detecting a first selection of first media content from the first plurality of selectable media content;
- identifying from the plurality of differing media content service providers a first media content service provider that is associated with the first media content;
- submitting a first request to the first media content service provider associated with the first media content, wherein the first request includes an identification of the first media content, an identification of the first user, subscriber information relating to the first user, demographic information relating to the first user, psychographic information relating to the first user, and information that identifies the first media content service provider;
- responsive to the submitting, receiving the first media content from the first media content service provider;
- and
- presenting the first media content.

A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a processing system including a processor, information associated with a subscriber identity module (SIM) of a portable communication device;
- selecting, by the processing system according to the information associated with the SIM, a user profile selectable from a plurality of user profiles, each user profile in the plurality of user profiles associated with SIM information from a plurality of portable communication devices of differing users, the plurality of portable communication devices including the portable communication device;
- presenting, by the processing system, a graphical user interface with a plurality of selectable media content that correlates to preferences identified in the user profile, each selectable media content of the plurality of selectable media content being associated with a corresponding one of a plurality of differing media content service providers;
- detecting, by the processing system, a selection of media content from the plurality of selectable media content;
- identifying, by the processing system, from the plurality of differing media content service providers a media content service provider that is associated with the media content;
- submitting, by the processing system, a request to an advertisement system and the media content service provider associated with the media content, wherein the request includes an identification of the media content, an identification of a user associated with the user profile, subscriber information relating to the user, demographic information relating to the user, psychographic information relating to the user, and information that identifies the media content service provider;
- responsive to the submitting, receiving, by the processing system, the media content from the media content service provider and advertisement content from the advertisement system;
