摘要:
A user terminal program enables a user terminal apparatus to accept instruction information specifying a content that a user wants to reproduce on a predetermined reproducing apparatus other than the user terminal apparatus, and enables acquiring system identifying information to identify a system to receive the specified content from a distributing site. Moreover, the terminal program enables judging whether the acquired system identifying information is included in a compatibility file which includes one or more system identifying information for receiving the specified content according to the system identifying information if the acquired system identifying information is judged to be included, and prohibiting receiving if judged not to be included. Furthermore, the terminal program enables writing the received content to an internal memory or an insertable memory of the predetermined reproducing apparatus.
摘要:
A content distribution system includes a reference server 112, and a plurality of distribution servers 101 to 108. The reference server 112 holds URLs showing network locations of the plurality of distribution servers 101 to 108, and transmits an URL for a distribution server to a user terminal in response to a user request. When one of the distribution servers 101 to 108 is accessed by a user terminal, the distribution server 101 to 108 determines whether access has been performed as a result of receiving location information from the reference server 112. If this is the case, the distribution server 101 to 108 generates payment information commanding the user terminal to pay the distribution server and the reference server 112, and transmits a distribution package including the payment information and a digital content to the user terminal.
摘要:
The invention relates to power saving in portable terminals (100) with recording media (200). Conventionally, there is the problem that a battery (104) in the portable terminal (100) may become exhausted and as a result the original function of the terminal cannot be performed. To solve this problem, when the remaining battery capacity is low, the invention controls power supply (108) to the recording media (200) and clock supply (110) to a CPU (202) in the recording media (200) so as to reduce power supplied to the recording media (200)

摘要:
A content distribution system includes a plurality of distribution servers (101-108), and a reference server (112). The reference server (112) holds URLs showing network locations of the plurality of distribution servers (101-108), and transmits a URL for a distribution server to user terminal (109) in response to a user's request. When one of the distribution servers (101-108) is accessed by a user terminal (109), the distribution server determines whether access has been performed as a result of receiving location information from the reference server (112). If this is the case, the distribution server generates payment information commanding the user terminal to pay the distribution server and the reference server, and transmits a distribution package including the payment information and a digital content to the user terminal.
摘要:
A CD on which only music information specified by the CD-DA is recorded, or a CD on which both music information specified by the CD-DA and music information to be recorded on a CD-ROM are recorded is mounted upon an information processing terminal. When the CD on which only music information specified by the CD-DA is recorded is mounted, the information processing terminal acquires, from a directory server, an ISRC number that identifies the music information recorded on the CD, and distribution server location information that identifies a content distribution server. The information processing terminal acquires content that is the music information compressed according to the MP3 and encrypted, from the content distribution server identified by the acquired distribution server location information, and the decryption key. The information processing terminal then decrypts the acquired content using the acquired decryption key and reproduces music.

A CD on which only music information specified by the CD-DA is recorded, or a CD on which both music information specified by the CD-DA and music information to be recorded on a CD-ROM are recorded is mounted upon an information processing terminal (10). When the CD on which only music information specified by the CD-DA is recorded is mounted, the information processing terminal (10) acquires, from a directory server (20), an ISRC number that identifies the music information recorded on the CD, and distribution server location information that identifies a content distribution server. The information processing terminal (10) acquires content that is the music information compressed according to the MP3 and encrypted, from the content distribution server identified by the acquired distribution server location information, and the decryption key. The information processing terminal then decrypts the acquired content using the acquired decryption key and reproduces music.
摘要:
A transportable recording medium includes an area for storing encrypted cookie information. The same cookie information is thus easy to use in different terminals and the cookie information becomes unique to respective users instead of respective terminals. A Web site reads the encrypted cookie information, decrypts the encrypted cookie information using a secret key stored in the Web site, customizes a requested service according to the decrypted cookie information, and provides the customized service to a terminal. If the Web site stores non-encrypted user information, the recording medium stores a media identification. The Web site stores the user information so that the user information of the user assigned to the recording medium is searched for according to the media identification. The Web site reads the media identification from the recording medium, searches for user information corresponding to the media identification, and customizes a requested service according to the user information.
