Transmission/reception system, recording apparatus and method, providing apparatus and method, and program

摘要

A transmission/reception system includes a providing apparatus and a recording apparatus. The providing apparatus has a generating section which generates restrictive information for each piece of content to be broadcast, and a providing section which provides the restrictive information by broadcasting to the recording apparatus. The recording apparatus has a management section which manages the restrictive information, and a restriction section that adds a restriction to at least one of a next copying of the same content as copied last or each piece of the recorded content that provided a source of the copying.
