METHOD FOR SHARING CONTENT AND CORRESPONDING APPARATUSES

A user may want to share segments of content, such as video sequences of news reporting or sports events received from a service provider, SR, or content provider, CP, with the members of his social network using the user's social networking application. Therefore, a method is provided for sharing content that may include receiving a content segment by a Transmitter/Receiver Device, TRD. The TRD may transmit, to the SP/CP, a request for sharing the currently received content segment. The SP/CP may receive the request from the TRD and may prepare the content segment for sharing, for example by uploading it to a replay platform. The TRD may receive, from the SP/CP an indication that the content segment has been stored on the replay platform, including a locator to the content segment. The TRD may publish the locator in the user's social network application.
