An apparatus and a method for providing contents by using device information are provided to enable a user to receive a contents list and contents regenerable at a user device. An apparatus for providing contents includes a communication unit(310), a controller(320), a contents storage unit(330), a contents list forming unit(340) and a contents converting unit(350). The communication unit transmits or receives an instruction for requesting user devices' information, device information in accordance with a corresponding request, the first contents list, the second contents list or contents regenerable selected by a user wherein the second contents list includes regenerable contents into which non-regenerable contents among the first contents list in the user device is converted. The controller provides information for the contents list forming unit on the basis of the user devices' information provided via the communication unit, and transmits contents information regenerable in the user devices to the contents converting unit. The contents list forming unit forms a contents list by using the user devices information transmitted by the user devices. The contents converting unit converts a corresponding file, selected from the first contents list, into a regenerable file. The regenerable file is transmitted to the contents list forming unit and the second contents list is formed. |
