A request for information related to a content broadcasted in a broadcast program being received is transmitted to a related information providing server (KS). The related information as requested for is acquired from the related information providing server (KS) and then stored. A part of the related information is transmitted, as a search key for searching for the content, to a CD seller server (31), thereby obtaining search results from the CD seller server (31). The provision of this search step allows one to obtain search results that are not somewhat imaginable, limited search results but a wide variety of search results by acquiring the information related to the content broadcasted in the broadcast program being received and further by using the part of the related information as the search key to acquire the search results from the content search server. |
