A method of streaming content includes encapsulating and packetizing HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) content into a MPEG private data Packet Identifier (PID) at a headend of a QAM network. This data service is multiplexed with compressed digital broadcast video content to produce a MPEG transport stream for being transmitted over the network to subscribers. The HLS content is provided to the subscriber in the form of data. At the subscriber location, the MPEG transport stream is received over the QAM network with a tuner that detects HLS content available from the MPEG transport stream in a form of a MPEG private data PID of the MPEG transport stream. The HLS content is buffered from the MPEG private data PID and made available to a wireless IP client device via a local area network connection.
