A license consumption system includes an information device on which application software operates based on a given license; and a function providing server which grants the license to the information device. The function providing server stores the license and an operating condition for granting the license, when attempting to start the application software, the information device transmits to the function providing server a licensing request of the application software and an operating environment of the information device, and the function providing server compares an operating condition of the application software corresponding to the requested license with the operating environment of the information device, and grants the license to the information device when the operating environment satisfies the operating condition. |
