Abstract
An approach is provided for quick content channel discovery, and with minimal latency, streaming of a content stream, and switching from one content stream to another content stream available from various content providers. A method includes a buffering of one or more original content streams from one or more provider sources to generate one or more buffered content streams by at least one buffering service. The method also includes determining one or more requests from at least one device to access at least one of the one or more original content streams. The method further includes, in response to the one or more requests, an initiation of a streaming of at least one of the one or more buffered content streams from the at least one buffering service to the at least one device in place of the at least one of the one or more original content streams.
