When data necessary for executing functions not stored in an information processing apparatus are primary data and secondary data, the functions not originally mounted in the information processing apparatus are executed by acquiring the primary data from a memory, and the secondary data from another apparatus through the intermediary of an interface. Thus, even with a recording and reproduction apparatus which does not store software necessary for implementing various functions in recording, transmitting, and displaying data, because of insufficient hardware resources, the various functions for recording, transmitting, and displaying the data can be implemented.
