Abstract:
1. A content receiver apparatus comprising: a download microprocessor that executes download of contents; a storage memory that stores the downloaded contents; a license information acquiring microprocessor that acquires output license information describing output requirements of the contents; an output microprocessor that executes output of the contents to an external storage medium, by export after recording the contents, or by direct export; a meta-information acquiring unit that acquires meta-information having output times information showing times which can output the contents to the storage medium; characterized in that: the output license information has usage conditions information indicating usage conditions of the contents in an output destination; in the case of the export after recording, the download microprocessor stores the downloaded contents in the storage memory; the output microprocessor outputs the contents stored in the storage memory to the external storage medium; acquires the usage conditions information from the output license information for the contents; and sets the acquired usage conditions information in a management information storing area in the external storage medium; in the case of the direct export, the output microprocessor outputs the downloaded contents by the download microprocessor to the external storage medium, without storing in the storing memory; the output microprocessor acquires the usage conditions information from the output license information for the contents and sets the acquired usage conditions information in a management information storing area in the external storage medium; the output license information has, as the usage conditions information, usage time limit information indicating usage time limit of the contents in an output destination; the output microprocessor executes output of the contents, on times indicated in the output times information, and sets the usage time limit information acquired from the output license information, and times corresponding to the output times information acquired from the meta-information in a management information storing area in the external storage medium.
