More Information
Summary:The present invention relates to an information processing apparatus in which push distribution data can be preferentially played back. On a station display screen displayed for a client, an icon 531 - 7 corresponding to a "recommended music" station in which push distribution data is registered is added. The icon 531 - 7 is displayed at the topmost level (highest portion) of the screen so that it can be more noticeable than icons 531 - 1 through 531 - 6 corresponding to the other stations. When power is supplied to the client, the icon 531 - 7 is selected to play back a so-called "melodious portion" or a climax portion of music data (push distribution data) registered in the "recommended music" station. In a message window 571 , for example, a method for purchasing content corresponding to the push distribution data which is currently played back can be indicated.
