    摘要: There are provided a content distribution system and a license management method for performing, in a collective manner, license management of a plurality of resources contained in contents. Each piece of content contains one upper-level resource (which is first referred to within the content), at least one lower-level resource (which can be referred directly or indirectly from the upper-level resource), one startup document and a license-corresponding document (which is an information file for performing, in a collective manner, license management of the resources contained in the content). The startup document contains at least upper-level resource reference destination information and at least one piece of license information for identifying view licenses required for viewing the resources contained in the content. In each resource, if link information for accessing other content is described, information for accessing the startup document of the other content is described.

    摘要: The present invention provided a content delivery system that can deliver content by way of the Internet. In the system, a browser requests a content server to deliver a startup file. The content server transmits the startup file to the browser. The startup file describes that the content is to be delivered by streaming or that it is to be delivered by downloaded files. A content reproducing section determines if the content is that to be delivered by streaming or that to be delivered by downloaded files according to the description of the startup file it receives from the browser. A television receiving set may be used as content processing apparatus for receiving the delivery of the content from a content delivery apparatus of such a system.

    摘要: The delivery of content is performed over a cable network with a high capacity, and data for control is exchanged over an IP network. A VoD channel is allocated to a bandwidth of a cable network (1) which is divided for every region beforehand, and thus the VoD channel is dynamically allocated in response to the demand for VoD streaming from an end device (11). A head end includes a broadcasting server (2), a control information server (3), a VOD server (4), a regional page server (5), and a multiplexer (6). The control information server (3) broadcasts or sends DVB-SI used to form information for enabling selection of a program, or AIT for control of a browser page. The end device (11) exchanges data for obtaining content and data for stream reproduction control with the head end over the Internet (17).

    摘要: The present technology relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program that can ensure content-related application programs can be reliably utilized. A client 11 reproduces content distributed from a content server 12 via a network 21, and if the content being reproduced is identified by an ACR server 13, a T/SS for managing an application relating to the identified content is acquired from a T/SS server 14, a predetermined application distributed from an application server 15 is acquired on the basis of the T/SS acquired, and the activation and so on of that application is managed, and the application can therefore be reliably utilized. The present technology can, for example, be applied to a content distribution system that distributes content and content-linked applications.
