Abstract
A handheld device is configured to be connectable to a storage media that holds a unique media identifier and holds a content key data used to decrypt an encrypted content data. A content data delivery system is provided that is configured to be able to deliver various data to the handheld device and to make a content data available to the handheld device. The system includes a member-registration information database that holds member-registration information including a data pair of a handheld-device identifier related to the relevant handheld device and the relevant media identifier. The media identifier held by the storage media is verified with the member-registration information database. When it is determined that the media identifier corresponds to the member-registration information, the content key data held in the storage media is read, and it is determined whether an encrypted content data corresponding to the read content key data is stored in the storage media or other storage media coupled to the storage media. The encrypted content data is transferred to the storage media or the like depending on the user's specification.
