An EPG server of the service provider creates EPG information on the basis of information on programs of a broadcasting station and lays open the EPG information to the outside of the EPG server. An editing server acquires and edits the EPG information periodically at predetermined intervals and lays open edited EPG information to the public. A hard disk recorder requests the edited EPG information from the editing server through a network on the basis of an instruction of a user and causes a monitor to display the edited EPG information supplied from the editing server on the basis of the request. The invention can be applied to an EPG providing system. |
