Abstract
An information processing apparatus classifies a piece of content data as a first or second category in response to a user operation while outputting the content data for a predetermined time. When the user operation is not performed from the start of the output of the content data to the termination, the information processing apparatus automatically classifies the content data as a third category. When there is a shortage of the number of pieces of content data classified as the first or second category, the information processing apparatus adds a piece of content data classified as the third category.
