Provided is a technology for recording the information of contents recorded in a recording medium, when the reproduction of the contents is instructed by a user, thereby to extract a favorite program of the user on the basis of that information. For the technology, the contents stored in the recording medium in accordance with the operation of the user are reproduced. In case the contents are reproduced, the information indicating the reproduced contents is read out and recorded as reproduction history information. A list of programs to be broadcast is received, and the program according to the reproduction history information is extracted as the favorite program of the user from that list.

摘要:
A data broadcasting system includes a user device and a data broadcasting server. The user device includes a network connection section that provides a request to transmit link information, accompanied by its own model information. The data broadcasting server includes a content performance determination section that obtains content display performance upon receipt of the model information. The data broadcasting server further includes a secondary link information transmission section that adds, to the link information, information indicating whether the content indicated by this link information is a content requiring content display performance exceeding the content display performance of the user device, and transmits the link information to the user device.
