Abstract
A terminal apparatus for interactively switching pieces of presentation data in a system which repeatedly broadcasts pieces of presentation data and corresponding pieces of navigation data including a receiver for receiving the presentation data, a reproduction apparatus, and a cache storage for storing pre-received pieces of presentation data and navigation data. Navigation data is analyzed to detect pieces of link-target presentation data which are presented to an operator. When the operator selects one of the link-target presentation data stored in the cache storage, the reproduction apparatus reproduces the presentation data.
