aggregating, by an offsite host system, content from a plurality of content providers;
monitoring, by the off-site host system, consumption of a storage space of a content device residing locally in a consumer user system, wherein the monitoring is based upon a type of the content device;
selecting, by the off-site host system, particular content contained in the storage space for relocation, wherein the selection is based on at least one of: how long the particular content has been stored in the storage space, size of the particular content, a user's selection, and an inference based upon most-frequently accessed content; and
relocating, by the off-site host system, the particular content contained in the storage space when a predetermined condition is met, wherein the relocating includes:
