Abstract:
1. A content record terminal comprising: a memory; and a processor that: records a content on a non-transitory storage medium; generates a dummy license in which an expiration time limit is set into a past time, and holds the dummy license in the memory; writes the dummy license into the medium when the processor records the content on the medium; and deletes the dummy license from the medium and writes a normal license for the content into the medium when the recording of the content on the medium is completed, wherein when the recording of the content on the medium is finished without completing and the processor restarts the recording, if a license recorded on a medium to be restarted is the dummy license, the processor continues the recording of the content on the medium, and thereafter when the recording of the content on the medium is completed, the processor deletes the dummy license recorded on the medium and records the normal license on the medium.
