PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To automatically select and record a program which people are possibly interested in among programs being broadcast in the same time zone. SOLUTION: A CPU 13 uses a LAN interface 18 and a LAN card 19 to access a search site by using a URL, sends search words (titles of respective programs in program information), and acquires the numbers of hits corresponding to the respective titles. Based upon the numbers of hits, the CPU 13 considers that people are interested more in a broadcast program having a larger numeral, and generates people's interest information on the respective broadcast programs which consists of numerals. Thus, a program whose highest people's interest information indicates the largest value is selected out of the programs being broadcast in the same time zone, and recorded.
