Abstract: A content communication system is disclosed which includes a communication terminal apparatus and a server, the apparatus having category IDs, the server delivering contents corresponding to the category IDs. The communication terminal apparatus includes a category holding device that holds a category ID; a sender device that sends the category IDs; a receiver device that receives contents from the server; and a storage device that stores the received contents. The server includes a receiver device that receives category IDs from the communication terminal apparatus; a database device that stores the contents corresponding to the categories; a search device that searches for and retrieves the contents corresponding to the main category and the sub-categories represented by the received category IDs from the database device; and a sender device that sends the retrieved contents to the communication terminal apparatus.

Abstract: The present invention provides a data distributing system for transmitting and receiving data between a terminal device and a server via a network. The server stores, for content data, additional data for modifying the content data or new content data obtained as a result of the modification of the content data and, in response to download and/or stream reproduction of the additional data and the new content data from the server by the terminal device, executes settlement processing and/or value point granting processing with respect to the additional data or the new content data.
