<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable all terminal devices to receive all distributed information in a relatively early stage when information (all distributed information) that all the terminal devices should receive in a relatively early stage and other information are available. <P>SOLUTION: A karaoke terminal 10 sends a normal distribution request to a 1st distribution host device 101 serving as a main host and receives undistributed "all-distributed information". Then an individual distribution request is sent to the 1st distribution host device 101 to receive an individual distribution confirmation result. The individual distribution confirmation result includes the correspondence relation between the kind of a host and host-specific information (e.g. telephone number), and hence the karaoke terminal 10 having received the individual distribution confirmation result accesses corresponding subhosts (2nd to 5th distribution host devices 102 to 105) in order according to the host specification information to receive individual distributed information that the terminal 10 should receive. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
