PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To shorten a time for downloading by tuning a receiver, assembling received contents data through broadcast transmission of a selected frequency, and transferring the data to a player for reproducing the contents data after all the contents data are received. SOLUTION: A filtering module(FM) 4 is tuned to a specified digital channel and starts filtering a desired package packet from a multiplexed broadcast stream. This filtered data block is transmitted to a contents host emulator(CHE) 2 which reassembles the package. When reassembling and format of the package are excellently executed, the CHE 2 transmits the package to a player application 195.
