A method comprising:

• receiving a resource profile from user equipment (UE) of an end user, wherein the resource profile indicates content providers that have assets for the UE to download in advance during a pre-fetch operation for local storage of the assets on the UE, and defines a percentage of UE resources allocated to each of the content providers for downloading the assets during the pre-fetch operation;
• adjusting the percentages of the UE resources in the resource profile to generate an updated resource profile;
• and
• transmitting the updated resource profile to the UE for use in at least one subsequent pre-fetch operation.
