Zusammenfassung:A content item distribution system comprises a distribution unit (105) which transmits content items, such as television programmes and adverts. The distribution unit (105) comprises functionality for selecting a user associated identity from a plurality of user associated identities and for selecting a content item. The distribution unit (105) transmits a notification message to a presentation unit (103). The notification message comprises an identification of the selected content item. The presentation unit (103) receives the content items and the notification message. A presentation processor (305) presents the content items and a detection unit (309) detects if the selected content item is presented. If so, an overlay processor (311) generates a user notification which is presented to the user. The invention may e.g. provide a secure and reliable television broadcast system allowing biasing of user behaviour towards the selected content item, or items of similar type, by automatically providing a reward if the user views the selected content item.
