Abstract: On the basis of information of a first user, requesting delivery of content, received from a content reproduction apparatus, a content providing server refers to first and second storage section, as necessary, to specify a second user having purchased or reproduced the same content as the first user, then identify other music content having ever been purchased or reproduced by the second user and then delivers the other content to the first user. The content reproduction apparatus can store the content, delivered from the content providing server, in an overwriting fashion and reproduce the stored content. In this way, the first user is allowed to readily acquire various music content, fitting his or her taste, without performing any particular operation.

Abstract: In an information processing apparatus stores, save data shared among first-third applications is stored in a memory for saved data by bringing it into correspondence with the first-third applications as first-third data. A computer integrates the first-third data stored in the memory for saved data within a main memory when the first application is activated, for example, and updates the integration data in accordance with execution of the first application and overwrites the first data and second data stored in the memory for saved data with the updated integration data in response to an automatic saving instruction or a saving instruction by a user at the same time.

Abstract: A housing structure of an electronic keyboard musical instrument, in which a pivotable upper case can be mounted to and dismounted from a lower case when the upper case is in a semi-open state, thereby improving safety and the working efficiency at the time of assembly and maintenance. Pivot coupling parts each include an engagement protrusion comprised of a narrow-width portion and a wide-width portion. An upper case is formed with engagement holes each comprised of a narrow-width counterpart permitting the narrow-width portion to be inserted thereinto and a wide-width counterpart permitting the wide-width portion to be inserted thereinto. By moving the upper case, having a posture thereof corresponding to a mountable/dismountable angle range, in the direction in which the wide-width portions project, the wide-width portions can be inserted into and removed from the wide-width counterparts.

Abstract: One of a plurality of prepared given expressions is displayed on a screen. After the given expression is presented to the user, the position of a face feature point is detected from a face image of the user taken by a camera cartridge. Based on the detected position of the face feature point, the user's expression in the face image is expressed in accordance with the evaluation criteria corresponding to the given expression, and an image representing the evaluation result is displayed on the screen. Thus, the user can effectively train the mimetic muscles.

Abstract: A sub-console 1200 has a lower channel strip group 40 on a front panel 1202, and an upper channel strip group 42 on a rear panel 1206. Left and right displays 52 and 54 are provided between the upper and lower channel strip groups 42 and 40. Either one of the parameter of the upper and lower channel strip groups 42 and 40 is displayed on the left and right displays 52 and 54. With this structure, the width of the sub-console 1200 can be reduced, and the positional correspondence relationship between the respective channel strip groups and the left and right displays 52 and 54 can be maintained. Accordingly, a high operability can be realized.

Abstract: Casing structure for a mixer apparatus includes a box-shaped casing that comprises an upper surface section, a bottom surface section and a side surface section. The upper surface section, having a generally obtuse-angled “V” shape, includes: a flat operation panel having operating members; a boundary section located adjacent to the rear end edge of the operation panel; and a flat, inclined display panel extending rearwardly and upwardly from the boundary section at a greater inclination angle than the operation panel. Within the casing, a partition member is provided on the bottom surface section to extend vertically upward to the boundary section, and it has openings to permit communication between front and rear accommodating sections. The partition member supports the boundary section from below to reinforce the upper surface section.

Abstract: A display controlling apparatus displays images divided into a plurality of groups on a screen. A computer of the display controlling apparatus displays, in each region corresponding to each group in a storing region to store the images within the screen, the image belonging to the group, and selects any one of the plurality of groups. Then, when any one of the groups is selected, the image belonging to the selected group is displayed in an operating region to allow the user to operate the images within the screen.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a computer. The computer subsequently images a user, makes an evaluation of first image data indicating an image obtained by subsequently imaging, and displays the evaluation result on an LCD by subsequently updating the same.

Abstract: Fuel battery generates electric power using a predetermined fuel, and activation and deactivation of the electric power generation can be controlled in accordance with whether or not the fuel should be supplied to the fuel battery. The electric power is supplied to individual circuits/devices of a tone generation section, so that a tone is generated by any of the circuits/devices operating in response to operation of a performance operator unit. The circuits/devices are allowed to electrically operate for a long time with the electric power supplied by the fuel battery. In this way, an electronic musical instrument using the fuel battery can operate for a long time as compared to the conventional electronic musical instruments using a dry battery or storage battery (secondary battery).
