Abstract
An impact of a delay time on a conversation is reduced. A voice packet is transmitted to a distribution server. A user is notified of being in a wait time from when transmission of the voice packet stops until when voice packet transmission becomes available next. The wait time is calculated on the basis of a first delay time that is a delay time between a local terminal and the distribution server and a second delay time that is the maximum delay time among delay times between a plurality of terminals including the local terminal and the distribution server. The user can easily know the speaking timing from the local terminal, and speech from the local terminal and speech from another terminal can be made not to mix.
