Abstract
The program information in which the distributive transmission scheduled date and time, and the address of a distributive transmission server are registered is presented by a program management server. On the client side which has received the distributive transmission of the program information, the date and time when acquiring the program information are registered and the program management server is accessed. Then, if it is judged that the program information of the program management server is already updated on or after the date and time when acquiring the program information, then the program information on the client side is also updated on the basis of the updated contents. As a result, even if the distributive transmission date and time of the program are changed, the terminal side can follow this change.
