Previously known network management practices fail to inform network operators about client-side performance and experience issues. By contrast, various implementations disclosed herein include systems, methods and apparatuses that generate one or more shared- resource traffic quality indicator values. Each shared-resource traffic quality indicator value characterizes at least a portion of the network by assessing a number of network performance characterization values in relation to one or more capacity values of one or more shared network resources. Each network performance characterization values provides a corresponding quantitative characterization of a quality of experience associated with the use of media content data received by a respective client device. In some implementations, quality of experience is characterized by at least one of an indication of perceptual quality of media content data and an indication of continuity with which media content data is used by a respective client device at a particular subscription tier.
